Last week, Skype made me update to its most recent version. But now on my Windows 10, the icon is gone. What should I do? Can I get it back?

Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

If you click on the start you may see Skype show in the menu, if not start typing it in until it shows. Then you should just be able to click and drag the icon to your desktop to create a shortcut.

    Go to the installed folder and right click on its executable to create a shortcut.

    Start button? The "improvement" made to new computers - I use a laptop - is the LACK of a start button! Or is the windows sign the button in question? Microsoft should adopt the maxim "If you have nothing to do, do not do it here"! If it ain't broken, don't "fix" it!

    Alas those who "know" assume everybody else and his dog has the same "knowledge". This is seldom the case. Sometimes, even the suggested buttons don't seem to exist. This makes for frustration.
