Windows 10: Skype 8.52 install loop

When I logged back into my system after applying some updates, Skype 8.52 install asked to run, so I said OK. It ran to completion and then ran again, and again, etc ... I told it NO after a few times round that loop.

Does anyone know how to stop that silliness?

Thanks

As this is a now quite established messenger system of sorts perhaps a Skype feature for people skype names so perhaps some real time problem solving/discussions could be mounted?
Just a wee suggestion.
