ShEsHy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 "...for those using mice and keyboards."I mean, seriously?

dcs18 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Sounds good!!!I'm glad that they made the Skype app for Modern UI more user friendly to Desktop Users, too - makes sense to those segment of Desktop Users who choose to not disable the Modern UI (unlike Desktop Users like me who disabled it completely.)Users of Skype app for Modern UI can download from the following page:--http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/skype/5e19cc61-8994-4797-bdc7-c21263f6282b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
