Key notes

If you constantly Skype your family, friends, colleagues, or clients overseas, you would know how helpless it feels when Skypetranslatoris not working.

Skypetranslatorstopped working for many users in November 2019, whenMicrosoft broke the newsof them discontinuing the Translator bot. However, Microsoft revamped it and brought it back better than ever.

When the translate function first appeared on the stage in 2015, it was a standaloneapplication, but Microsoft integrated it into Skype the next year, making it now a built-in feature. If the Skypetranslatoris not working in 2020 for you, here’s what to do.

How do I fix the Skype translator if it doesn’t work?

3. Set up Skype Translator correctly

With the improved Skypetranslator, you no longer need to add the Translator bot as a member of your chats whenever you discuss business with your overseas clients. When Skypetranslatoris not working in 2020, the function disappears entirely.

Other times, it only works for specific languages or only one participant, but it’s nothing serious. You can fix this issue by refreshing Skype or rebuilding it entirely.

By following these methods, you should be able to get rid of any Skype translator-related issues that you may be having.
