Remove previous ID from Skype

I am very new to Ubuntu.

When I installed Skype I used an old Id but I have a newer one that is exactly the same as my hotmail email. Every time I open Skype it is opened with the older ID but I would like to change this.

I can open another instance by using skype --secondary but I would like to remove the first one because I want to Lock to Launcher with the newer ID.

I read some forums telling about deleting the ./Skype folder but I don't know which folder that is.


Solution 1:

It's .Skype, a hidden folder in the home directory.

Hit ctrl+h to reveal hidden folders, or run rm -r .Skype in a terminal window to remove it.

Solution 2:

For Ubuntu 20.04:

rm -r ~/.config/skypeforlinux/Local\ Storage
