I'm wondering if anyone has been able to remove Skype from an Office 365 click to run setup? Uninstall option only gives me Repair options. We have moved to a new client that conflicts with this so it needs to be removed. Thanks for your input. Skype lets you make free Skype-to-Skype calls to anywhere in the world. And with an Microsoft 365 Family subscription, you get 60 Skype minutes a month to say 'hello' to contacts on mobile phones or landlines in more than 60 locations worldwide. If you don't have Skype yet, download the app from Skype.com, or from the App Store or Google Play. This article applies to both Microsoft 365 Enterprise and Office 365 Enterprise. Skype for Business Online administrators are responsible for managing policies. Although you can do some of these tasks in the Microsoft 365 admin center, others are easier to do in PowerShell.

This article contains the necessary steps for forcing the Office 365 version of Skype for Business to update to the most current version.

If your Office 365 version of Skype for Business has not updated to the most current version, you can manually force it to update. This process cannot be done directly through Skype for Business and will manually update on all of your Office 365 desktop applications (including Skype for Business).

Office
    1. Open any of the Microsoft Office applications that you have installed as part of your Office 365 subscription (except Skype for Business), and click on the File menu at the top left.

    2. Click on the Account menu option, and then on the Update Options button.

    3. Click on the Update Now option from the drop-down menu that appears.

    4. Your updates will begin downloading in the background. You can continue working with your Microsoft applications while this process takes place.

    5. If the updating process requires you to close any applications, a notification will appear to give you the option of how to proceed. Closing the applications listed yourself, and saving your work is the recommended option. Once you’ve done that, click the Try Again button so that the updates can proceed.

    6. The update process will then continue, after which your computer will have the latest versions and updates for your Microsoft Office 365 desktop software, including Word, Outlook, Excel and Skype for Business.
