Newsflash Microsoft.stop insulting users' intelligence.we are perfectly capable of deciding which apps we wish to utilize, and we still remember how to sign up for them! Perhaps if you spent more time and effort with marketing you wouldn't have to resort to such dire, strong-handed tactics to gain more clients and a larger market share.Is it possible to change the name in Skype? What ever happened to choice? The ability to make my devices actually 'my devices' by allowing users to design their devices to fit their productivity needs was one of the long time hallmarks of Microsoft. It is getting really old having to find a 'hack' for your own computer in order to have the programs/apps that you actually use and want installed on your devices.

Suppose you don't want to use a specific service offered by Microsoft? It would be more reasonable to have this as an 'opt in' option rather than an 'opt out' option as it stands currently (via having to uninstall if possible). I have no problem with this for those that wish to use all the Microsoft services, but I wish this was not done by default. By letting Skype users sign into Microsoft services with no barrier, it should make it much easier to do more in Windows 10. One of the biggest obstacles in getting people to switch to services is the barrier to entry including signups and logins. This shift is a nice streamlining effort that will likely benefit Skype users who are currently not deep into other Microsoft services. None of these changes will affect your ability to use Skype - as usual you can still sign in using your Skype Name. With a single sign-in (and an email address for certain services) you will soon be able to have fun on Xbox Live, access your photos and docs through OneDrive, check your email on, and connect with your friends and family on Skype.If you have noticed some changes to the Skype sign-in screen, password change and account recovery flow, that's because these are now managed by Microsoft. We've been working to bring Skype and Microsoft closer together and are excited to announce that soon you will be able to use your Skype Name to sign into other Microsoft services like Xbox, Office and OneDrive. You may have recently noticed a few changes in the look and feel of your Skype account. Going forward you will be able to do the reverse: sign into other Microsoft services (OneDrive, Xbox Live, etc.) with your Skype name. Currently, you can sign into Skype using your original Skype name or your Microsoft Account.
