Today i had the unfortunate experience of not remember my skype password…. So this should be easy i thought but Nope, you also have to remember the email you used when you signed up with skype. Grrr that too i forgot, i spent two hours trying to find an answer. I did finally find a solution and i hope this finds its way to you faster than it did me. then answer comes from a skype forum but the short answer and what i did is this.1) Username / e-mail address: Copy and Paste or Type %AppData%\Skype in browser or Explorer address bar. Double click user folder, double click, or open (with Notepad), profile 256 or 4096. Email address and user name should be there. i found my in the 256 file. its mixed in with some other data but you will find it helpful. This solution only works if you still have the software installed on a computer that you had previous signed in with. Hope this helps

Thank you soo much, Mike!!! I don’t know what I would’ve done if I hadn’t found your site, start a new account I guess… God bless ya, man!
Anyway, I found mine (email address) in the profile32768 file, so if you have this problem, you’d better check each and every files listed I bet it’d be there. Good luck!
