One of the enhancements of Skype 2.5 was to simplify the upgrade process. Instead of the tedious download/save/install process that involved saving a file somewhere and then finding it to do the install, one simply need click on “Help | Check for Update” and the entire process is automated. No need to close and/or uninstall the previous version. At one point you will receive a screen asking to confirm acceptance of the Skype End User License Agreement and the Skype Privacy Statement:
Click on the acceptance check box and the Install button. From this point the new version is downloaded and installed; you are then logged back into Skype and ready to continue Skyping.
Feature additions in Skype 2.5.0.122 released at the end of June (change log):
- Adds a “Send SMS” button to the main Toolbar
- Updated translations, including install translations
and 17 minor bug fixes that result in smoother and more intuitive operation. (Note: no security issues in this hotfix.)
So, click on “Help | Check for Update” to ensure you have the latest bug fixes.
