Hello,
In recent weeks, I receive a warning from update Portable skype (SkypePortable_6.7.59.102), but after an error it will not install.
"The download Skype is not valid and can not be installed"
I tried to find previous versions but I found nothing.
Can you help me?
thank you

I saw someone else with this complaint. If this is a business computer you are trying to run this on, it may be Windows Group Policy that is preventing you from installing it. If you have a home computer, install to flash drive at home, bring it to location where you can't install. I'm not sure what else it could be. On a policy-run computer, I can't install apps directly from PA platform.
Thank you for your answer
I tried your method, and here the installation is not done either.
It makes me the downloaded file is not valid.
(although the file is well panel portable apps)
Thank you
PS: The previous version of the (SkypePortable_6.7.59.102) worked successfully.
If the problem does not solve themselves, could you give me the link to download the previous version?

Can you download this file and get a 31MB download with an MD5 of 9d73b76ff32c0ad53a0c53de15d655ad ? If so, place that file next to the PAF installer and it will use that rather than download. If not, something else is up.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thanks
I get a good download the file.
But I can not seem to install on the PC office (admin access).
Thank you in advance

After uninstallation of the platform and re-installation I get to have skype.
Thank you for your help.
