Question

Skype

Is there an option to run Skype on Windows XP?
No, I understand that it was high time to update the OS, but I don’t have it and I won’t be there in the coming weeks.
It costs Skype 7.36.0.150 - flew out and that's it, now it does not connect.
I saw instructions for adding support for AES-256, but I tried it on a virtual machine - This version of Skype is no longer supported, blah blah, update the OS.
Are there any moderately perverted ways to start?
And not in moderation?

Answer 1

You can try to install the latest version of Chrome browser available for Windows XP and open the web version of Skype in it.
