Robert,

Was this with Windows 7?
I have Windows 7 and JAWS 14.
Here's the deal.  I've used Skype with this computer flawlessly for a while
now.  I hadn't used it in about three weeks, so when it was time to do so,
this happened.  I'd done nothing different, except for now removing and
reinstalling it.

I also bamped into the same issue; however, after I instaled skype for
desktop, I was able to use skype as I'm used to. Please visit
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12162/how-do-i-get-the-desktop-version-of
-skype-on-windows-8
and follow the steps to instal skype for desktop.

Regards,
