Search Skype Chat - Here's how
If you chat a lot via Skype, it can be very time-consuming, for example, if you have to search a chat for a specific term. We will explain how this works best.
Search Skype chat logs efficiently
Are you looking for all the conversations you had with a specific person or are you looking for a term that came up during a chat? No problem, as your entire conversation is saved on your computer by Skype.
- Find the chats with a specific group or person, go to "Contact" or "Conversation" in the menu bar and click on the person or the corresponding group. The associated conversation log is then displayed.
- If, on the other hand, you are looking for a term that came up during a chat, first select the corresponding conversation. Then go to "Conversation" in the menu bar and then select "Search" (see picture).
- A search field is then displayed on the right-hand side in the lower area. In this you enter the term you are looking for and then let Skype examine your chat for it.
In order to make your future searches easier, we will tell you how you can sort and manage your Skype contacts.
