So, inorder to delete W32/Skintrim.1!Generic, I suggest you to format the computer and then, install a fresh copy of the operating system that you are using.

    I am using the AVG antivirus in my system and you can use the same to delete W32/Skintrim.1!Generic. This is because this is an antivirus that the experts have recommended to use for the deletion of infections like virus, worms and trojans. You will have to update the database of the antivirus and then, run a full system scan. After that, remove all the unhealed infections that are detected during the scan.

    Hello there, the Avast antivirus can help you to delete W32/Skintrim.1!Generic because this antivirus comes along with the feature of boot scan. This is a scan that takes place before the operating system loads. So, the infections are not able to execute before the startup of the system. Because of this, the infections remain inactive at this time and hence, they can be eradicated from the system easily.
