Regarding the question you mentioned, where Skype recordings are stored on your computer depends on whether you are using Skype's built-in recording function or a third-party tool like EaseUS RecExperts.

Record Anything on Your Windows PC

Whether using the standard or business version, please note that when using Skype's built-in recording feature, all participants will receive a recording notification to protect privacy. If you want to record a call without notifying others, a screen recorder like EaseUS RecExperts is a good choice. Moreover, it's crucial to comply with relevant laws and regulations.

The following are the typical situations:

1️⃣Record Skype calls via EaseUS RecExperts

When you are using a third-party tool to record Skype calls, the location will depend on the folder you choose to store in the software. The default storage location for this app is C:\Users\Bill\Videos\EaseUS RecExperts. You can also specify the saving location and rename the recording files in the software's file path as needed for better file management.

2️⃣Using Skype's built-in recording function

When using Skype's built-in recording function, the location where the recording is saved will also differ depending on whether you are using the standard version or the business version.

👉Skype for Business

If you are using the business version and the built-in tool to record Skype video or audio calls, the recording files will be saved on your computer's local hard drive by default, located in the Videos>Lync Recordings. For instance, if your login name is Bill on a Windows computer, the directory is C:\Users\Bill\Videos\Lync Recordings.

If you need to change the file saving path, you can sign in to the Skype for Business client, click Settings > Tools > Options, find the Recordings tab, and then click Browse to set the specified folder.

👉Skype (standard)

The recording will be saved in Skype's cloud server when using the standard version. After the call is finished, the recording will be automatically sent as a message in your chat history. You can download it to your local device. Remember that the recording will only be saved in the cloud for 30 days. Please download it promptly as needed.
