290 Topics- Skype For Business SE - persistent ChatHello, maybe someone of you run into the same error and is able to help me on this topic: we are using SkypeForBusiness only for internal communication last week we have upgraded SkypeForBusinness 2019 to SE: "SkypeServerUpdateInstaller.exe" run without errors, installed the necessary updates and we were able to upgrade to SE on topology builder and publish the new version. on the next step we tried to activate persistent chat. so same procedure for the upgrade: start the update file "PersistentChatUpateInstaller.exe", nothing else to upgrade the first steps (install new sql instance, configure topology builder, publish the new topology were easy, no issues occured. but when we start the Deployment Wizard to install the necessary components we received the error: "File not found trying to install installing c:\programdata\skype for business server\deployment\cache\7.0.2046.0\setup\mgcserver.msi (feature_chat_server)" my question: how can we install the necessary roles/components to activate persistent chat. the file MgcServer.msi couldn't be found on the server, i can't find it on the SkypeForBusinnes 2019 ISO, too. one version i found, was located on the ISO for SkypeForBusiness 2015 ISO, but this version can't be installed. Thanks in advance, best regards, Markus25Views0likes0Comments
- How to Remove Skype for BusinessSkype for Business currently installs as a packaged product with Microsoft 365 Business Professional desktop apps. The installation does not install Teams as a part of the Microsoft 365 Business Professional desktop apps. Additionally, Skype for Business has its own installation which is separate from Microsoft 365 Business Professional desktop apps installation. Windows OS: 11 Pro w/ Windows updates. Issues: Users are unable to remove Skype for Business from their desktop by clicking “Uninstall” located on the Windows Start menu. Teams upgrade requires Skype for Business settings to be set manually via the Teams Admin Center. Using the PowerShell command: uninstall-package 'Microsoft Skype for Business MUI (English) 2016' to remove Skype for Business requires NuGet to be manually installed prior to performing a removal task or does not remove the application at all. The odd thing about this is that the system recognizes that a 2016 edition of Skype for Business exists. Note: Microsoft Word reads with the following version number: Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2508 Build 16.0.19127.20082) 64-bit Granting and then revoking API permissions via Entra Admin center does not separate Skype for Business from the Microsoft 365 Business Professional installation. Uninstalling Microsoft 365 Business Professional desktop apps only removes the Skype for Business app temporarily until reinstallation occurs.41Views0likes0Comments
- skype phone number transfer to teamsHi Microsoft community. I hope you will be able to help me with this question. In company I work for, we have a skype number set up. We use this skype number for our customer service. Now, since skype is about to reach EOL, and we would like to have better control over this account we want to transfer this number to Teams. This number ,account was created years ago and it was requested as a new number. Therefore, the provider for this number is SKYPE/MICROSOFT. I have read bunch of articles and tutorials on how to port a number to teams, however this (wheatear done by automated wizard in office of send manually to PSTN service desk) requires a lot of information that I don't have. I have credentials to this skype account, phone number that is associated with it, but I can not figure out how to transfer it to teams. Can you please advise ? It really sucks that MS Skype is about to reach EOL and there is no clear information about how to transfer from number from skype to teams.

- Screensharing mit Ventura 13.2.1 und Skype for Business 16.29.95 doesn´t workHello I am not able to share my screen via Skype with Ventura and the latest Skype 16.29.95. Or rather to see it when another participant in the conversation shares his screen. The behavior is identical in both situations. It works for about 10 seconds then just aborts. After that the screen sharing is no longer visible. However, the Skype connection still exists. I can still talk to the other person and the camera video image is still transmitted normally. Only the sharing of the screen does not work anymore. It can not be activated in this call. Only when you re-establish the connection, you can try the timing again. However, it disconnects again after about 10 seconds. I have reinstalled Skype several times in the meantime. This does not solve the problem.515Views0likes0Comments
