DIY Steps to Resolve issues with Skype Reinstallation

If you had uninstalled Skype for reasons like freezing, crashing or unexpected shutdowns, then reinstalling Skype can improve communication. However, reinstalling Skype becomes a problem if you can’t connect to the Skype’s server or if you run into errors caused by conflicts with different applications and security programs. With some simple steps you can solve download and reinstall problems with Skype and maximize its communication features.

Step 1: Getting  Error 1618

When you try to reinstall Skype, you would probably get Windows Installer 1618 error code. This generally happens when multiple programs attempt to install at the same time. The error can also occur if you try to reinstall Skype when you are updating Windows system. So, first close any other installation that is in progress. If the error continues to come, press ‘Ctrl’, ‘Alt’ and ‘Delete’ keys together to launch the task manager. From there, click the ‘Processes’ tab and then click ‘MSIEXEC.EXE’ and then finally click ‘End Process’ to terminate the program manually.

Step 2: Check Internet Connection

The next important thing to do is check for a valid network connection. If you get network connection error message on your browser when you try to reinstall Skype, your router or modem has lost the network connection. If the problem persists, try connecting another device to the network. If the other device also doesn’t connect to the Internet, press the ‘Reset’ button on the device to restore network connectivity.

If the problem remains, the issue is likely with the Internet service provider, so contact your provider for additional troubleshooting information.

Step 3: Security Program Settings

If the above steps have not resolved Skype reinstalling issue, then check for security program setting such as firewalls or antivirus programs. This generally happens if the program is configured to block downloads and installations. Check the program's settings and adjust them to allow you to download and install Skype.

You should now be able to reinstall Skype successfully.
