    Default Links in Skype to start automatically in compatibility mode

    Hi On my machine running at the time win 8 with Skype in compatibility mode for Win XP Sp3, when I now send someone a link to Skype and then I click it in the Skype is my default browser in my case, Firefox also started in compatibility mode. I open the browser via the normal desktop icon and copy the link HERE in the address bar, however, I find awkward is there a way to configure Skype and Firefox so that will not confess species left in Skype in compatibility mode, it is normal?

    If A program running in compatibility mode (Skype) ALL other programs (eg Firefox), which are accessed through this program, ALWAYS run in compatibility mode, this is intentional so and not be changed!

    This happens even if you already have Firefox open what if you reinstall Firefox so that does not come a new window, but a new tab?
