The automatic authorization feature when starting Skype can serve you as a good service until it becomes necessary to log into Skype on another computer or after reinstalling the system. If you find that you don't remember your Skype username or password, don't worry: it's easy to restore Skype.
Instructions
Step 1
If you have forgotten your Skype password, the easiest way is to recover it using your email address, to which the account was registered.
When you start Skype, enter your login in the authorization window and click on the "Forgot your password?" Link located next to the password field. On the Skype password recovery page, enter your email address, after which an email with a time code and the ability to instantly recover your password will be sent to the specified address. The same steps can be performed when entering your personal account on the official Skype website.
Please note that the time code must be redeemed within 6 hours. After 6 hours, the code will become invalid.
Step 2
If you do not remember either the password or the email address, then follow the link "Can't remember your email address?" Available in the Skype authorization window or when you enter your personal account on the official Skype website.
Enter the following details:
1) your login;
2) calculated data for any of the transactions in Skype for the last 6 months (first and last name of the user, country and order number or credit card details that were used for payment).
This option will work if you have had Skype transactions in the last 6 months.
Step 3
If you cannot remember the login, then follow the link "What is my Skype login?" The link is available in the Skype authorization window or when entering your personal account on the official Skype website. To restore your login in this way, you need to specify the email address to which your Skype account is registered.
If you do not remember either your username or email address, then it is impossible to identify you and recover information automatically via Skype services. However, there is a way out here too: contact your friends with whom you have been added to Skype contacts. You can also do a "contact search" and search for your contact through first and last name or phone number. After you restore your username in this way, return to the previous steps to recover your password.
