Now I want to backup my chat logs from Skype for business application. I am trying to find out the chat logs file like main. Db but it does not exist for business application.

In fact, Skype will keep users’ text-based chats in the cloud for at most 30 days. If you want to keep the Skype conversation history for a longer time, you’ll have to make backups manually.

The Desktop version stores information in main. Db file in C:\Users\\App. Data\Roaming\Skype\ Does the Win 10 version do something similar?

Go to Skype’s data export tool and sign in with the proper account. Wait for the export to complete. This can take a while depending on the amount of logs you have. When the export is complete, download it. It will be available for 30 days. The data will be downloaded in a .tar archive.

There are plenty of third-party tools for that: Skyperious, Skype. Browser, any SQLite browser & many others Does it get saved somewhere? Yes, that’s the (incomplete) list of possible locations from Skype. Browser website: Can i choose a folder location myself to start saving voice and chat history ?

How do I backup my Skype chat history?

Once you double-click the folder for your Skype username, you can paste and overwrite the current Main. Db file with your old log file. You should see your stored conversations the next time you run Skype and log in to your account.

You can’t access the chat history on your PC in a recent version of the app but you can download it from Skype Online. Go to Skype’s data export tool and sign in with the proper account.
