Skype for Linux version 1.15

Skype has already crashed once this morning... Ugh.
I might just see if I have a clear drive and Linux it. Won't be a SSD - but have to see...Hmm (mumbles something about running STEAM on Linux,...)

Gene - what other software do you have installed on Windows ?
Might be super painful, but flush that system, reinstall Win10 1607, install Skype and the bare software you need to work... and see how it goes.

Also of note, I get a daily notice that there is an update for Skype. If I try to run it, it fails - can't seem to figure out the UserName -
At which point I have to manually do it.

So you get this daily, you install daily, yet you still get it daily?

No - at this point, I ignore it. I tried to set so that it doesn't check, but since it crashes, it doesn't retain the setting.

Just set to NOT check, exited, and on restart, it checked for updates.
