Microsoft has released a new update for the Skype Preview on Windows 10, adding a number of much-needed features to the app. With the latest update, you can finally drag-and-drop a file on Skype Preview to share it in a conversation which is definitely a very neat feature which should have been there since the app’s initial release. In addition to this, the update also brings the ability to preview a webpage before you click it which will basically show a preview of a webpage when someone shares a link:

Here is the full changelog:

  • Drag and drop any file up to 300 MB each in the chat to quickly share it.
  • Adjust your microphone and webcam setup directly in Skype.
  • Preview a webpage before you click it.
  • Know who said what with quotes in instant messages.
