Skype EULA pops up at every startup

rated 0 times [ 5] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1996 / 1 Year ago, mon, april 10, 2023, 7:58:21

Everytime I boot my computer, Skype starts automatically after login. The problem is two fold:
* it keeps asking me to accept the licence agreement
* it keeps forgetting my password

That's quite annoying. Does anyone have any idea of where the problem might be coming from? It's been like that for a while, but I can't pinpoint when it started exactly.

Skype holds its settings in a hidden folder ~/.Skype.

Possibly you have the wrong permissions or possible corruption in the files the application uses.

Try renaming this folder. Then re-add your login details and retest closing and reopening the application.

In a terminal

mv ~/.Skype ~/.Skype_backup
