Skype for UWP is supported only by Windows 10 and Windows Mobile 10 version 1607 and higher. This version can be used on desktop computers, laptops, netbooks, tablets, smartphones and other devices, including Xbox One and Microsoft HoloLens.How to change the language in Skype for UWP?
Because Skype uses the Windows interface language to change the language in this version, you need to change the operating system language and restart the computer. For example, to change Skype for UWP language to English, you need to open Start → Settings → Time and Language → Region and Language, select “English”, click “Set as default” and restart the computer. If after this Skype still does not appear in English, update Skype from the Microsoft store, and only then will it use the desired language. If something does not work out, it may be worthwhile to remove it altogether and reinstall it.Versions of Skype for UWP

+7), #After installing the new Skype UWP on my windows 10 PC I wanted to check the version (formerly in the menu-bar under about Skype) and set the options to show me Away if I am not at the PC for 3 minutes
andt the notifications to stop telling me when someone signs on.
Also I want to change to Split windows view‼
[Updated ]
In the older versions, Icould select between showing all my contacts or those contacted recently.
How can I do this in Skype UWP⁈
[Updated ]
1.) How can I set after what time shows Skype me inactive. I used to set it to 3 minutes, in which time i may still be near enough to my PC to hear and answer the call.
2.) There used to be a Skype icon in the systray, showing my network status.
Why is it not there any more⁉
3.) How can I turn off certain notifications⁉ 4.) why did the developers remove a number of useful features
