Windows 10: Saving Skype video recordings to laptop

CaroEardley · Oct 10, 2019

My Windows 10 is up to date and I'm using Skype version 8.52.0.138, Application version 14.52.138.0. I've got video recordings on Skype that I wish to save to my laptop. I've tried Save and Save As and neither of them work. What to do?? This is important to me...?

Skype for Business Recordings

Hi Robert, I would advise adjusting your recording options prior to starting the recording. The 480p video resolution will be optimal if you want to email it later. To reduce your recordings to the smallest possible size, follow the steps below:

- Settings icon in Skype for Business, click on Tools > Options

- Options screen, select Recording and change the video resolution to 480p. Click Ok to save the changes.

Introducing Skype call recording

When we added video to Skype calls over ten years ago, the ability to share important moments with loved ones took a big step forward. Today, we’re introducing call recording to help capture special moments in a Skype call with your loved ones or record important meetings with your colleagues.

Call recording is completely cloud-based and is now available on the latest version of Skype and on most platforms, except Windows 10. Call recording is coming to Windows 10 with the latest version of Skype releasing in the coming weeks.

As soon as you start recording, everyone in the call is notified that the call is being recorded—so there are no surprises. If you are on a video call, Skype will record everyone’s video as well as any screens shared during the call. After the call, you can save and share the recorded call for the next 30 days.

How Skype call recording works

You can start call recording any time during a Skype call on both the desktop and mobile devices.

To start call recording on the desktop, at the bottom of the screen click the

sign, then select Start recording.

To start call recording on mobile, tap the

sign and then tap

On both desktop and mobile, a banner appears in your Skype screen letting everyone know you’ve started recording the call.
