Skype for Outlook.com updated to allow audio and video calls in Microsoft Edge

With Windows 10 launching in just two days on July 29, Microsoft is making more of its websites compatible with the new operating system and its Microsoft Edge browser. Windows 10 users who enjoy checking their email on Outlook.com can now use Edge to also take audio and video calls via its Skype features for the first time.

Even better, Edge users can also silence any Skype alerts and notifications when using Outlook.com as well. We will likely see more of these kinds of small additions and improvements for Windows 10 owners before the official launch on Wednesday.

Thanks to Lucas Nobre Silveira for the tip!
