Windows 10: Skype

Hi maranna.

Here is a list of cumulative updates. Indeed the March 14, 2017 did break DVD's. There has been two more Cumulative updates released. KB4015438, which is supposed to fix that issue, seems to be being pushed to users as my machines are now going through that update. (you can check your version, click on Start => Settings => System. Scroll down right hand column to "About"

If yours hasn't updated you may "Check for Updates". You can also manually download. I would let Windows Update take the first crack.

I don't think the redistributable will cause you issues.

I assume you are using the Skype app. You might try uninstalling that single app and reinstalling from store.

I would create a restore point before doing anything and I would recommend creating an Image using Macrium reflect. Better safe than sorry.

I believe you can also still download a desktop version of Skype. Again have your restore point and Image. Always want to be able to get back to where you were.
