\"Skype\"[German<\/a>]Microsoft released an update for Skype for Business client on July 31, 2017 in Microsoft Office 365. Skype client is updated to version 1707 (Build 8326.2033). After this update, a login is no longer possible in non-english Skype for Business clients.<\/p>\n

Skype for Business Version 1707 (Build 8326.2062)<\/h2>\n

\"\"Shorty after I published the blog article Microsoft Office: Non security updates August 1, 2017<\/a> discussing non security Office updates, released on August 1, 2017, I received a comment<\/a> from German blog reader G2: <\/p>\n

\n

Yesterday I got W10 update \u201e2017-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1703 (KB4032188)\". After a reboot, an Office 365 update from Current Channel (\u201e1707 \u2013 Build 8326.2062 (July 31, 2017)\") has been offered \u2026<\/p>\n

After installing, the Skype for Business client's GUI was broken. My attempts to repair Office 365 failed. Only a downgrade to \u201e1706 Build 8229.2103 (July 19, 2017)\" has repaired Skype for Business client. <\/p>\n

Going back to previous Current Channel Builds 8326.2059 (July 28, 2017) and 8326.2058 (July 27, 2017) didn't fix the GUI issue. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A few hours later I came across this forum entry<\/a>, reporting the same issue within Skype for Business client. The user wrote: <\/p>\n

\n

on one of our computers, the login screen of Skype for Business is lost (see screenshot). Before I reinstall the Office Suite, is there a solution known?
Office 2016 is updated: Version 1707<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is the screenshots:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Skype login bug confirmed<\/h2>\n

Blog reader G2 has posted a link to this Microsoft support article<\/a> (Unable to log-in to Skype for Business Version 1707 (Build 8326.2033) and later for non-English users). <\/em>Within this article, Microsoft confirms the login issued in Skype for Business clients under Version 1707 (Build 8326.2033) for non-english versions. <\/p>\n

\n

Launching Skype for Business using Version 1707 (Build 8326.xxxx) in Windows 10 results to an error or a blank window and does not show the log-in screen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Microsoft is working on a fix and treating this with high severity. The workaround: Revert back to Skype Version 1706 Build 8229.2103 (July 19, 2017).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
