1. Remove Skype For Business From Registry

Hi Indigold,Skype for Business (and it's predecessor which was called Microsoft Lync) are packaged as part of Office. So, if you go to Programs and Features, and select your Microsoft Office installation (mine is called Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 - butyours may vary), and then choose to Add/Remove Features, you should see it in the list.As I said - you'll probably see it listed as Microsoft Lync - that's the same thing, the name change to Skype for Business was quite recent and not everything has been updated yet:Hope this helps,-tomTom Morgan Skype for Business Blog: thoughtstuff.co.uk.

Tom,The link you show does not appear in Office 2016. The only Add/Remove choices are Repair and Uninstall, which gives no granularity at all. Your only choice is to completely remove Office 2016. Yet, Add/Remove permits you to individually uninstall Skype forBusiness. This creates an unstable condition in which Skype is no longer installed, but Office 2016 doesn't know it.So how do I get rid of the unwanted Skype for Business without messing up my Office 2016 installation? Further, by what yardstick does this situation constitute good software design and testing?

Microsoft certainly has nothing to be proud of here.
