Skype Problem

04/13/2018 3:57 AM

I have a problem with Windows XP to install Skype. It stops halfway and Skype doesn't start. Comes up with security issues like check JAVASCRIPT. It starts but stops halfway.

I know WinXP is old but still would need it for a while, any ideas though?

It keeps asking for the installation file. Do you know what that might be?

My girlfriend is so happy now. She said should you'd ever come this part of the world, she would ya and give you all the goodies you like...

It's my fault because I am using her new laptop and she has to use her old desktop with WinXP. It is a good old machine and I would use it myself if I could transport it.
