Skype Hack – How to Run Skype from USB Flash Drive!

by max on Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

For those of you on-the-go or simply have multiple computers, you can learn how to run Skype from your USB flash drive so you don’t have to install the software on any computers.

Here’s all you have to do:

  1. Install Skype on your PC and then find the installation folder. It’s probably something like “C:\Program Files\Skype.” Copy the Skype.exe file to a folder on your USB flash drive.
  2. In that same folder on your flash drive, create a subfolder called “data.”
  3. Create a new text file called “Skype.bat” or Skype Portable.bat” or whatever you like.
  4. Open your new file using Notepad or another text editor and write “skype.exe /datapath:”data” /removable” (without the quotes).
  • Save and close your file
  • via downloadsquad
