Removing Skype Name from Directory

Hi,
I would like to have my skype name removed from the skype directory. I will then create a new account with a more professional name. Any help on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Derek du Plessix

Hi, 3521, and welcome to the Community,
The final step is to contact Skype Customer Service, as is mentioned above, to file your request. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the webform and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail unless you are routed to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent.

Elaine

Removing Skype name from sign in screen

Hi
I'm selling my PC (windows XP pro) and have deleted Skype (using add/remove programs) then reinstalled it.
My user name keeps coming up as an option, without the PW, how do i delete this from my PC so my username does not come up any more?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try Below:
Exit Skype : From the system tray >> right click on the skype icon and click "Quit"
Press WinKey + R to open the Run window
type: %programdata%\Skype\Apps and press Enter
Delete the login folder.
Again Press WinKey + R
type: %appdata% and press Enter
Delete the Skype folder.
For testing purposes you can run Skype but you need to delete the folders again.

Remove My Skype Name from Skype directory

I don't want to receive contact request from anyone who knows my name so I wanted to change my Skype Name and change my Display Name to stop people finding me with my full name on Skype.
But I read in this topic "https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA110/can-i-change-my-skype-name-or-display-name-in-skype-for-windo..." that It’s not possible to change my Skype Name. And If I want to have a different Skype Name, I will need to create a new account.
So I start looking for how to delete my present Skype account before creating a new one. And I followed all the instructions in this topic "https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA142/can-i-delete-my-skype-account". Now I need to remove My Skype Name from the Skype directory. I tried to contact Skype Customer Service by Email but they're having some problems at the moment.

Hi, Community14,
Thank you for your report. Please try contacting Skype Customer Service again, this time using a different web browser than you typically use.
Regards,
Elaine

Remove my Skype Name from the Skype directory

Hello, can you please help me. I want you (someone who does that) to remove my Skype Name from the Skype directory.
I removed all my personal information from my profile.
"If you want us to remove your Skype Name from the Skype directory, you need to contact our Skype Customer Service. It may take up to two weeks to remove your name from the directory."
I've read everything about this topic. So, please, can you just do that?

Hi, Amy-992, and welcome to the Community,
Because our Community is not a branch of Skype Customer Service, as is explained in our Community Guidelines, in fact we are not authorized to process account-related customer service requests.
Please do contact Skype Customer Service to file your request to remove the account - remember, this is a one-time request, is permanent, and will disable your account from further use.
Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service, try again using a different web browser. Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also impede reaching an agent.

Elaine

Guys this is absolute rubbish feature of the login application where people's login names get recorded in the dropdown menu. Is there any more permanent way of getting rid of this annoying privacy intrusive "feature"? I would like to have a profile with a username that is not going to appear at airports and my grandma's laptop after I log out of skype and no I do not want to go digging for app files to remove my entire history on each and every machine I use as suggested by your help files. Could you please advise if I'm missing something here?

Delete of my account - skype name from skype direc...

Hello.
I am wish to delete my account (Skype Name from the Skype directory)
I have already taken all steps described in: 'Can I delete my Skype account?' ...deleted all personal information (name, e-mail, etc...)
I also tried to contact the customer support with my request ...tried all the steps there as well but it took me all around back here.
Is there any direct e-mail contact option? Can someone assist me?
Thanks.

I think that the instructions on how to contact customer service is clear enough and easy to follow. Yet, if that one is not working for you (though contacting via webform usually results to faster responses), you can also try to send an email to [email protected] .

Removing user name from sign-in window

Upon starting Skype my username appears in the sign-in window by default.
To stop this happening skype says: when skype is not running, in Finder click on Go, select Go To Folder, enter ~/Library/Application Support/Skype, and once there delete the folder bearing the username to be removed.
This works, but only until the user with that name signs-in. Thereafter the name reappears in the sign-in window.
Can a username be removed without having to follow this procedure every time the user logs out, please.
Skype 6.15 (335)
Mac OS 10.6.8

Removing my name from an Alias email

I have been unable to remove my name from the "FROM" in outgoing emails. U have deleted my name in the "FROM" box in the preferences with no luck.
Help...pf

Open address book. Find your own card in address book. Check if this email address is on your own card. If so, you just get your name displayed, as you and this email-address is in address book. Simply delete the email-address from your card, and you shouldn't see your name in "From" any more.

Is there any way to remove my name from the profil...

Is there any way to remove or prevent my profile from appearing in the profile search directory? I'm so tired of ALL the unwanted contact requests. Yeah I know I don't have to add them but this shouldnt even be a problem in the first place. If I want to add someone to add me I'll give them my skype name.

Hi, Phnxbane, and welcome to the Community,
You may certainly remove all profile data by leaving those settings as "blank" or "not specified." I find the easiest way to do this is to open the profile settings from within the Skype "client" software.
Removing/deleting an account name from the Skype search directory closes the account. More details about this can be found here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'

Elaine

Remove Printer Name from Crystal Report

How can i remove the printer name from the Crystal Report so that the PrinterName property of the CRAXDRT.Report object in the RDC SDK is blank WITHOUT having the "No Printer" Option checkbox checked?
Here's the scenerio. When I first create a Report and don't go into Page Setup, PrinterName property is blank. If I go into Page Setup and explicitly select a printer, PrinterName property equals the name of the printer selected. If I check the "No Printer" checkbox in Page Setup, PrinterName property is blank. But if i go back in and uncheck the "No Printer" checkbox in Page Setup, the PrinterName property equals the name of my Windows Default Printer.

I'm still not sure what is unclear about my first question. And I'm not sure how any of the info you are requesting is going to make any difference in answering my question. And I'm not sure how your analogy fits here but ..
Version of CR = 11.0.0.895
CR Service Packs applied = None
Web or Win app? = Win App
OS? = Windows XP Service Pack 3
Development language? = Both Visual Basic 6 and C#.Net 2008
Method of CR files deployment = email the .RPT file to a client
Where were the runtime files downloaded from? = Runtimes are installed from Merge Modules donwload from SAP site
What is the version of the craxdrt.dll on the deployed box? = 11.0.0.893
So here are the exact steps so you can understand what is going on:
I have the Crystal Reports Application open side-by-side with my Visual Basic development environment in debug mode so i can step through the code using the RDC SDK.
1. I open the Crystal Reports Application and create a brand new report - "Test.RPT" and DO NOT go into Page Setup at all and save the report.
2. In my Visual Basic development environment, i run the code that will generate the report, Here's the exact code
    Dim m_crApp As CRAXDRT.Application
    Dim m_crReport As CRAXDRT.Report
    Set m_crApp = New CRAXDRT.Application
    Set m_crReport = New CRAXDRT.Report
    Set m_crReport = m_crApp.OpenReport("Test.RPT")
3. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is blank.
    ie. crReport.PrinterName is equal to ""
4. I reopen the Crystal Reports Application with report "Test.RPT" and go into Page Setup and check the "No Printer" option.
5. I go back into my Visual Basic development environment and rerun the code that will generate the report.
6. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is still blank.
    ie. crReport.PrinterName is equal to ""
7. I reopen the Crystal Reports Application with report "Test.RPT" and go into Page Setup and uncheck the "No Printer" option. I have NOT specified any printer, nor have i clicked the "Printer..." button to setup a printer....i have just unchecked the "No Printer" option
8. I go back into my Visual Basic development environment and rerun the code that will generate the report.
9. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is now set to my WINDOWS DEFAULT PRINTER, yet i had not specified any printer.
    ie. crReport.PrinterName is equal to "
MyNetwork\MyPrinter"
PROBLEMS:
1. The client needs the report to go to the default windows printer of their machine
2. If the "No Printer" Option is checked, the Report does not print at all
3. If the report is set to MY default windows printer and i give it to the client, at times it takes upwards of to a minute for the Print Dialog to disply. As i've read on other forum posts, it appears Crystal is looking for MY printer on the clients machine and takes a minute before i realizes it can't find it and then sets it to the CLIENTS default windows printer.
4. The client believes it is unreasonable to wait a minute for the print dialog to appear ...and i agree.
5. I cannot change the code to use the Select Printer in the RDC SDK - it's a long explanation why but just suffice it to say that i cannot do this.
All i want to do is either:
1. Remove the Printer Name in the actual report from the Crystal Reports designer - basically undoing what Crystal did when i went into Page Setup.
2. Via the RDC SDK, be able to detect the "No Printer" option is selected. Checkign CRAXDRT.PrinterName equal to "" is not an option.
