SkypePortable extras disabled?Submitted by foxcole on October 24, 2009 - 2:16am
Really not sure where to post this, so I hope it's okay to ask it here. I love having an official portable version of Skype but have a question. Why is the Extras option disabled? My daughter who lives 1700 miles away and I like to play some of the Skype games, and there are some extremely useful things such as collaboration tools, call recorders and avatar managers, for example. Is there a technical reason why extras wouldn't work with the portable version of Skype? ( categories: )

Is there...
a better place to post this question? or a way to get Extras working?
Cheers!

Not Portable
In testing earlier, I remember that the extras were not portable. No additional work was put in for this release because Skype Extras is being shutdown.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thanks!
I'm sorry to hear that; but very good to know. I appreciate your help!
Cheers!

Extras shutting down? Or Portable apps not supporting it.
Hi John,
I noticed on the Skype site they are still selling Extras things and I didn't find them saying anything about shutting it down.
Can we get a reporting source for that?
Or were you just emphasizing that there won't be support for Extras in the final portable version.
Bh2ooo
Shutdown
Skype is fully shutting down the entire extras program:
