I'm desperate, I've tried everything. I can't install Skype no matter what. I've tried every command I could and still nothing. When I download from the website I get a read only folder.

Whatever command I use, this is the result 

Unable to locate package Skype

Open a terminal by Ctrl+Alt+T and do the following:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install gdebi
cd ~/Downloads
wget https://go.skype.com/skypeforlinux-64.deb
sudo gdebi skypeforlinux-64.deb

This should do it. If the system tells you that gdebi is already installed you can ignore this and simply continue with the next command.

Have you downloaded the latest version from official website: https://www.skype.com/en/get-skype/ ?

You can download the .deb file and open it with UBUNTU software center then click install.

If it does not work please reply with more details.
