Are you installing it through the skype site, I will suggest you gohead and get it from the Windows Store,

Make sure you are installing the latest version.

You have to make sure that the Skype version you are using is compatible with the windows 10.

Run the installer in a standard way and once prompted, close the browser.
Right-click on the installer and open Properties.
Select the Compatibility tab.
Check the “Run this program in compatibility mode for” box.
Select “Windows 10” from the drop-down menu.
Confirm changes.
Right-click on the Skype installer again and click “Run as administrator” in the contextual menu.

Not sure why you can’t do this? I have some kind of issue while installing but later on I successfully installed skype on windows 10.
