Any ideas why this
started happening today?

Nope. An update perhaps?

In any case, start Task Manager, click the Startup tab,
and disable its startup.
No updates since the 25th and those were two office related updates
plus one "dot net" update. (I normally have updates enabled, but I
was out of town earlier in the month and had updates temporarily
disabled. I turned them back on on the 25th. That's why they weren't
on patch Tuesday).

Regarding the start-up tab, skype wasn't listed there. I think I'm
going to uninstall both versions. I can always reinstall them if I
need them in the future.

Thanks,

Adding an update to my reply of a few minutes ago... When I went to
uninstall the metro version of skype, it said it had been installed
today (January 30th). Hmmm, I didn't do that and nothing was listed
as having been updated today.

Microsoft is rolling out OneDrive integration for Skype, allowing
users easy access to their files.

Thanks to OneDrive support, Skype users can now send Office documents,
PDFs or any of the other 300 file types supported by OneDrive. To use
the feature, simply sign into Skype with the same Microsoft account
associated with OneDrive. Then open the chat you’d like to send a
file to, tap the + button in the bottom left corner and select
OneDrive.

And of course, from time to time, OneDrive updates have been
extra aggressive like that too. I've had that happen even on
Win10 setups that aren't using an MSA.

The feature above, appears here to have been a plugin of some sort.
