If your Skype account password has been lost or forgotten, you can use several methods to recover it, offered by the service developers. You can remember your password by e-mail or by a combination saved in the program itself.
Instructions
Step 1
To recover the password for the account via e-mail, first go to the official website of the project using a browser. In the upper right part of the page that opens, click on the link "Sign in to Skype".
Step 2
In the window that appears, click on the "Forgot your password?" Link, you will be redirected to the recovery page. In the corresponding field, enter the email address that you used when registering the new account. Click Submit.
Step 3
Log into your account on the mail server and wait until you receive a letter with a unique link to change your forgotten password. If the message does not arrive for a long time, check the Spam directory. The email service may have recognized the email as spam.
Step 4
Follow the link in the message. Enter the new password for your account in the appropriate fields on the page that appears. Click on the "Change password" button. You can now try to log into Skype.
Step 5
If for some reason you do not remember the e-mail specified during registration, you can try to restore the previously saved combination of symbols using the service program, however, provided that the password has been saved in the system. Log into the Skype application, go to the "Personal Information" - "Edit My Information" menu. The "Personal Information" section will contain the email address to which the account is registered. Change it to your used e-mail.
