This issue have been bothering me a while, but not enought to take it seriously, the problem was that everyone was able to see my picture, but not me, so, it was a weird behaviour. Sometimes when I clean the Skype Adress Book, the picture appeared for a few days, but then disappear magically.
So, after spending few hours trying to solve this problem, I found this magical post from Koen Zomers
The steps are quite simple:
- Sign Out from Lync/Skype
- Open the regedit
- Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync or HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Lync
- Make a backup of the Lync Folder
- Delete the Lync Folder
- Sign in again in Lync/Skype
You will see that the deleted Lync folder have been created again, and finally your photo shows again. I hope that this problem won’t be reproduced again 🙂
