You probably clicked on something without knowing it. But Skype is somewhat useful.

Possibly but I'm not sloppy in PC use and accidentally installing things.  I get Skype is useful but I keep two PC's as clean as I can; nothing loaded that isn't needed for their main purpose.

I'd be interested in knowing why Skype just installed itself on my Windows 10 PC.  Even put itself in the startup list.

 

Microsoft owns Skype now. They paid 8.5 billion for it so by golly they're gonna push it on ya. I think it installs itself as part of the Windows 10 install although the latest update seems to have made it more noticeable. I believe it comes preinstalled on a lot of Android devices too.
