So we tried allowing each individual executable by name, with no folder location restriction, but that's STILL not good enough. (Full whitelisted path is "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\SkypeForBusinessPlugin\" meaning any application in that folder or any subfolder thereof would be allowed.) But that doesn't solve the problem. We know the directory where it installs, and allowed the entire directory, with the %username% variable. Second, once the plugin is installed, and once we make sure the user is opening a browser that allows the third-party plugin, it still gets blocked by policy.
Because every host seems to have their own installer, hosted on their own server, and they always insist on installing THEIR web app. Instead, we save the installer to a special directory, so that the users can install it under their accounts. We can't just blanket allow the installer from any location, since that's a disaster waiting to happen. This makes the list very broad as is, but one application seems to demand a total lack of application restriction to function: the Skype for Business web app.įirst, even if the employee has the web app installed, it insists on installing again, even if the person clicks the link that says they already have it installed. If you want to report bugs or have a feature request, please fill the bug report form in the addon homepage ().We deployed an application white list several months ago after more than a year of refinement, and have been tweaking it since then to allow all the programs our employees need to use. Please note that, this addon does not have any settings or options to adjust. Once the UI is closed all background activities are halted. Simply click on the toolbar button to open Skype in a simple popup window. Note, to start using this App, you need to have a Skype account. Moreover, the window is re-sizable to your desired choice. All credits goes to Skype application/Microsoft corp.Ĭlicking on the toolbar button, renders Skype web UI in a standalone window. This unofficial extension is a wrapper to the original Skype web app and tries to make it usable as a browser extension. The official Skype software is only released for smart phones and web. It is basically an unofficial extension that is developed and maintained independently. Important note: "App for Skp Web" does NOT belong or relate to the official Skype application at all.
An easy-to-use and lite App for Skype web App for Skp Web is the easiest way to open and use Skype web from your desktop machine (PC, MAC or Linux).
