Title: Cannot Uninstall Skype
Post by: Racco on March 11, 2016, 03:54:20 pm

When I try to Uninstall, it gives me the message attached to this note.
Has anyone seen this and what do I need to do to uninstall it?
Thanks

You don't say which version of Windows you're running, but searching for "the installed product does not match the application source" in Google search led me to this Microsoft tool - hope it helps..........

Sorry, I did forget.  It is W10, when I tried, the link it came back saying that "Fix it" does not support W10.

Sorry, my experience of W10 is pitifully small, but is this link any help to you?

Thanks ALL.  I got into the Skype forum and was given this tool that does work in Windows 10
Run the following removal tool:
SRT (.NET 4.0 version) [pcdust.com - latest]

Thanks Again :smiley:
