Welcome to the group!!
32bit Skype is no longer supported.. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/forum/skype_linux-skype_startms-skype_installms/skype-32-bit-linux/f0a01b8e-3b71-44be-a8a9-b7d89ebeb0c1?auth=1
Skype supports 64bit.. If you're PC supports it you can install LL3.8 64bit where you'll find Skype in "Lite Software"
You may want to try web based log on - https://login.skype.com/login

Hi,
Seems so. When I today tried Skype version 4.3.0.37 on my 32 bit Linux Mint 18.2, I got the same symptoms. And once, it came up witn an upgrade link - to a 64 bit version :-(
Thought about completely giving up Skype on this PC, but remembered having read about a web-version of Skype.
And i found, that Skypes web-version works fine on my old laptop through:
https://web.skype.com
using chromium on 32-bit linux
Chrome has ended support for 32-bit)
Regards
Steen"

Hello jmogrady and welcome to the forum
Why bother with Microsoft spyware like Skype?
Have a look here at Talky and it just might change your mind.
