Hi all!

Here are all of the key commands for the Windows 10 Skype app.

There are three entries for each command.

There is the Windows command, the Mac command, and then the action that it activates.

Here you go, right below!

What are hotkeys and how do I use them in Skype?

Keyboard shortcuts are specific combinations of two or more keys on your keyboard. They make it easier and faster for you to use commands that you would otherwise have to access via the menus. You can use keyboard shortcuts to easily quit Skype, send a file, copy text and a lot more.
