Software & Updates menu:

Once I select them and close, it complains they are out of date and it needs to be updated. I authorise and let it do it's thing but it brings me to this:

  • I'd recommend keeping Windows 10 in a dual-boot configuration. You may need it to do BIOS updates, get support from the manufacturer, or run Windows apps for which there is no Ubuntu counterpart.

Skype not being shown in Ubuntu Software is a known issue. You can install it from terminal instead:

sudo apt install skype

As regards the other message, it's probably what it says. You may want to open Software & Updates and try another download server.
