Easily view old Skype Chats with this tool!

Skype Chat Viewer

Purpose

This tool can be used to view old Skype Chats from old computers!
If you know you have a working Skype Instance there you should firstly export the chat before
connecting this computer to the internet!
I made this tool to make it easier to view the exported chats, I didn't find any other tool which
could render the chat like a "real" chat.

⚠️ ATTENTION: This tool works only with old skype versions!

Exporting your old Skype Data

  • The data is located at %appdata%\Skype\your_profile_folder.
  • You can backup the whole directory, but for reading the chats you only need to export the main.db-file.
  • You can open this file then with this tool or copy this file to the same directory of this tool and it opens automatically!
  • You can select the conversations you want to read

Features

  • Shows all conversations!
  • Loads messages with paging (loads more messages if you scroll down)!
  • Shows chat messages like a real chat (time, sender, left: if you recieved it; right: if you sent it)!
  • Parses smileys like <ss type="smile">:)</s> as :)!
  • Search in chat using the searchbox!
