Skype v6.1.0.129
Correct version is Skype v6.1.0.129.
Install package invalid
After downloading the install package for Skype the tool reports that the install package is invalid and thereby can not be installed...

file name for the Skype installer doesn't match
I suspect the problem is that the SkypePortable_6.0.0.129_online.paf.exe installer downloads SkypeSetupFull.exe but is set to install SkypeSetupFull_6.0.0.129.exe.
The difference in filename is probably causing the problem?
I can confirm renaming SkypeSetupFull.exe to SkypeSetupFull_6.0.0.129.exe does allow SkypePortable to be installed/updated (when downloaded and put in the same folder as SkypePortable_6.0.0.129_online.paf.exe)
It shouldn't be to long before this is fixed, but for anyone who wants to try downloading and re-naming SkypeSetupFull.exe, the direct link to download is
