How to fix Skype Home Unavailable Error






It takes how many months before I found the solution of the above error.

This error is not on skype program itself but on your computer networks and Internet Explorer settings because skype home rely on it.

Follow the procedure below:
1. Open Command Prompt (cmd) in Administrator Rights
2. Enter this command "netsh winsock reset"
3. restart skype or its better to restart the computer.


If the above steps doesnt solve your problem try reset you IE settings into default.
1. Internet Option
2. Advanced
3. Click "Reset..." button
4. restart skype / restart computer

  1. Thank you so much! Your second step worked for me! I had been dealing with this issue for days, and I had tried EVERYTHING I found on the Internet, but nothing had worked. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

  2. Thank you, JP.

    I did step 1 but (so far) am reluctant to take step 2. (I use Chrome and am not sure what resetting IE will do to it.) So, far, it's not working but -- if I get really desperate, however I will.

    Right now I am doing Window Updates in the hope it might make some difference; plus it was working just moments before I created a new Skype account so I am hoping it will eventually work.

    Thank you for the tip. I might be using it soon.

    :)

Windows CE install/update/upgrade/restore

The only solution i can think is to reinstall WinCE 6.0 Prepare:     - 1GB SD Card (Format it as Normal not Quick in FAT)       - Charge the battery of Netbook up to 100% (in my experience, installation may failed if low battery)     - Download  WinCE 6.0 or in http://www.poodwaddle.com/netbook/WinCE.rar      - Extract that file into SD Card root folder (when you open you SD Card in explorer you can see that there is folder named "Script".    - That's all for the preparation Procedure:     1. Turn-off Netbook     2. Insert the SD Card     3. Turn-on netbook     4. It will automatically read and execute the content of the SD Card     5.
