i want search on my skype history is used following link to do so How should I see the skype chat history from the file main.db located at ~/.Skype/SKYPEUSERNAME/?
i have the following configuration
You will find everything inside /home/{user_name}/.config/skypeforlinux/
directory on Ubuntu 16.04. Let me know if it helps.
I found it in
home/snap/skype/common/.config/skypeforlinux/skylib/live#{skypeusername}
inside this you will see main.db
my system is ubuntu 18.04 and skype version is 8.34, Hope it will help someone
** please make sure hidden files are visible otherwise you will not see .config folder
Config folders are usually hidden in ubuntu, The skype folder is hidden. You need to enable showing them.
Open nautilus (File Manager), press ctrl+h
, you will be able to see hidden files/folders. Go to the folder with the name .Skype.
main.db in the below path should have what you are looking for:
.Skype/<;skype_account_id>
ex: .Skype/chudasamachirag
You can view this file in a sqlite application, such as SQLiteStudio. (Select Database> Add a database, and give the path of this main.db file)
i have used following configration Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Skype 5.0.1.1
means in this situation!~/.Skype
folder is for the old version of the Skype client, isn't it?
