I had to uninstall Skype from my phone and began to reinstall it. I have the desktop version and also on Google Nexus. When I attempted to log in on the newly installed app on the phone I needed the password. But I couldn't locate it anywhere. Tried Security - Options in Firefox Tools but every other password showed but Skype. Is there a way to retrieve it without applying for a new one?
