Rumor: Windows 8 may have function of video chat


 Users of Mac OS X can chat via video call by famed FaceTime. With it you can chat with friends and see them through the camera's computer. Now this feature can be in the new version of Microsoft's operating system, Windows 8.


The TechTudo reported last month that Microsoft bought Skype for 8.5 billion dollars and there will be integration of services with the company's products. According to rumors, this integration can happen in Windows 8 already.

The rumors surfaced when the board staff at My Digital Life saw one of the DLLs (Dynamic-Link Libray are pieces of software that are not attached to the original executable and are unique to Windows), called Windows ConsentUX.dll 8, instructions related to Video call:

"100, Do you want to allow to use your% 1% 2?
101, CapabilityName
102, DisplayName
1600, Block
1601, Do you want to allow you to use your video Chatter?
1602, Allow
1603, Always Allow "

In addition, the blogger Manan Kakkar realized that the lock screen of Windows 8 was an icon of a webcam with a seven on the side. This could indicate the number of video calls lost. We can also see an indication of unread messages.

With this, we do not know if it's a video called Windows Live Messenger, as we currently have, or if Skype is already built into Windows 8. Microsoft has not confirmed these rumors and Windows 8 has no release date.
