How to Change the Default Language in Skype

When Skype is installed on your computer, by default its language is set to English. In most cases it is assumed that anyone who uses Skype has basic understanding of the English language. In your case, if you belong to a particular region and want to view the entire Skype interface in your local language, Skype allows you to do so.

As a Skype user, you can change the default language from English to anything else as per your personal preferences by choosing your language from the available list.

Here’s how:

    ■Log on to your computer system.
    ■Initialize the Skype application by double-clicking its icon.
    ■On the Sign in interface, click the appropriate option to log-in either using Microsoft account or by your Skype Name.
