Skype program is provided for communication with his friends. Here, everyone chooses a convenient way for themselves. For someone, this video or ordinary calls, and someone more like the text of the text correspondence. In the process of such communication, users arise quite a logical question: "But to delete information from Skype?" Let's see how to do it.
Method 1: Clean the correspondence story
To begin with, we will define what you want to delete. If these are messages from chat and sms, then no problems.
Go to B. "Tools-Chatting and SMS-Open Advanced Settings" . In field "Save the story" Press "Clear the history" . All your SMS and chat messages will be completely removed.
Method 2: Deleting single messages

On the Internet now full of all suspicious programs that promise to solve the problem. I would not advise you to use them because of the most likely to catch viruses.
Method 3: Removing Profile
Delete the conversation (calls) you will not work either. This feature in the program is not provided. The only thing you can do is remove the profile and create a new one (well, if you really need).
To do this, stop the Skype program in "Process Process Manager" . In search of computer "% APPDATA% \ Skype" . In the found folder finding your profile and remove it. I have this folder called "Live # 3aigor.dzian" You will have another.
After that, we go into the program again. You should have the whole story.
Method 4: Deleting one user's history
In the event that you still need to delete the story still with one user, it is possible to carry out the intended, but not without the use of third-party tools. In particular, in this situation we turn to the DB Browser for SQLite program.
