Chances are thin, but it could happen that during the linking process you mistakenly used an email address (Microsoft account) that you didn’t want to use to begin with or you’ll simply change your mind later. Then you will realize that you cannot remove the link between the two accounts. I asked Skype about this concerns and in response (@SkypeSupport) the company said: To my surprise short after the above response, Skype Support suggested that if you want to unlink the Skype account from the Windows Live ID, you could do it, but you have to contact the company’s support directly. As you see, it is possible to undo the merge between a Microsoft and a Skype account, but it is a bit unconventional. Of course, you will avoid going though a tedious process, if you make sure in advanced which email address you want to use to link the account.

Instructions

If you have to undo the merge, head over to the Skype support page, with the link mentioned above, click Accounts & Passwords, from the right side, select Creating and account. Then you’ll notice at the bottom of the page that new button “Continue support request” will appear, click it and it will take you to the next step. In the next step, click Send and email. Fill out the form and send the request. Note that it could take some time for them to respond, but it should take care of your problem. Did it work for you? Let us know in the comments below.
