How to install Skype on Zorin 12


Today we are looking at how to install Skype on Zorin OS 12.  Since I made this video, the installation process has changed, as the Skype version for Linux received a major upgrade and Skype dropped support for 32 Bit Linux systems.

If you have a 32 Bit system and still want to use Skype, please look here:

If you have a 64 Bit System, please follow the instructions below.

Firstly a person needs to download the .deb package from the download link below and then install it on your system.  The easiest way to install it on Zorin OS is to open the downloaded package with the build in Software Center and install it with it!
