I last blogged updates to the Office 2013 / Skype for Business 2015 client in August last year. There appear to have been two releases in the intervening period.

Lync 2013 / SfB 2015 Client Update – March 2020

Kb 4484097. The version number of this update is 15.0.5223.1000.

It contained one documented fix:

• Kb 4538707 Allow Skype for Business 2015 (Lync 2013) user to start a meeting to share screen or have a group call with a Microsoft Teams user.

This is the client fix itself:

• x86 (lync2013-kb4484097-fullfile-x86-glb.exe)
• x64 (lync2013-kb4484097-fullfile-x64-glb.exe)

Lync 2013 / SfB 2015 Client Update – May 2020

Kb 4484289. The official version number of this update is 15.0.5241.1000, although you’ll see from the image below that it reports through Help/About as 15.0.5233.1000. This apparent discrepancy is confirmed by the ‘lync-x-none.msp file information’ details in the kb article.

There are no specific fixes listed, other than that “this update improves translations for multiple language versions of Skype for Business 2015 (Lync 2013).”

This is the client fix itself:

• x86 (lync2013-kb4484289-fullfile-x86-glb.exe)
• x64 (lync2013-kb4484289-fullfile-x64-glb.exe)

Before / After

There’s no traditional “Before/After” image pair in this post, as this one snuck onto my client while I wasn’t looking.
