Skype Personal integration with C#

[Member_14623639]

It's been weeks of searching everywhere but couldn't find any help and finally i'm posting my query here. I'm not finding a way to integrate Skype Personal (Not Skype Business/Lync) in my c# application. I just want to receive Skype messages on my application. I have tried using Skype4com Library but it has discontinued and does not support the latest Skype and LYNC API also works only with Skype for business and same with Skype Web SDK as it does not work with Skype personal. I also tried the method to fetch the details through Skype local database but latest version of Skype doesn't store anything locally. Note: There are still some applications with Skype integration that I know but I don't know how they do that.

I guess that's the difference between "free" and "not free". You can spend (waste) more time looking for free than paying for not free. And, who is the ultimate customer.

What do you mean with free and not free?

I guess the "not free" means one must pay some mony for it. :suss:

There aren't any paid api's too.

Integration for the personal (free) version is not supported, you need to be using the business (not free) verion to be able to extend/integrate its functionality. I recall spending many hours searching for a solution before the bank gave up and forked over the money to MS for the business version.

I appreciate your comment but there are still applications manage to track skype personal messages. I'm so curious to find how they do that.
