Removing a user on a basic level is a pretty simple task.

Here, we explain how to remove a user from Skype for Business. That is all, I’ve shared everything the easiest and best way that I could think of, I hope this was helpfull to you.So if you want to discontinue using Skype For Business or want to remove a user that, for example, may no longer work for the company anymore, you can do so in a variety of ways. You just need to have the ability to adapt the script and tools to the reality of your environment. You can encapsulate the files to run in SCCM, logon script, GPO, PSExec, etc. A command prompt window will open but all other commands will be running silently. Then just double-click on the UninstallSkype.bat file present in that folder and wait for the removal to run. I will not be held responsible for unexpected or inappropriate results to the outcome of your trials.ĭownload the zipped folder with the necessary files here.Ĭopy the zipped folder over to the test machine and extract it. If you want to test in your own environment, I suggest you do it on a testing machine or VM first to see how the script will behave in your reality. Obs: I’ve tested this method inside my environment, using the latest Office365 x86 and 圆4 installs. Since I was successful I then decided to share my solution to help other colleagues.

If it exists it hasn’t been shared (yet), and that’s why I decided to get some hands on and get this done.

I was asked in my company to then develop an automated silent way to remove skype, considering that I should complete this in the best possible way, covering both 32 and 64 bit versions.Īfter a lot of research on the internet, I could not find anything that was ready to go. While this is probably great news for almost everyone, this can tunr into a big headache for many network administrators and support analysts out there.Īlthough Microsoft has its plans well defined, there is still no news of an official tool for removing Skype for Business in a silent, automated way, in bulk and without harming the other applications in the Office365 package. Microsoft has announced in 2019 that they will completely discontinue Skype for Business until July 2021, replacing it by Teams once and for all ( Read about it here).
