    I have Win 10 with 2 Windows accounts—one my husband’s; the other mine…As of 8/7/20, every time I log onto my account I get the attached message regarding Skype…My husband does not get it when he logs onto his account…
    
    When I look into Event Viewer, I find Adm Events Errors re Skype starting 8/6/20 immediately before a WinDef update….
    
    Is Skype a necessary part of WinDef (update process) or any other process…???….I really don’t want Skype activated……I thought I had it deactived’……
    
    I need help in deciding what to do about this…..And help with how……
    
    Thank you in advance…….

    Skype is not required for anything and can be removed if you don’t use it.
    Even Dell have instructions for removing it.
    
    cheers, Paul
