Answer 1

When the user clicks "Skip", it means "Ask me again in 1 week". There is no way to adjust this time delay.

If you release a new version of the application in the meantime, the user will again be prompted to update.

You can also prevent the user from skipping the update in the first place by:

• Checking for updates before the application starts, and
• Making the update required by specifying a minimum version

In this case, the user must either update or they cannot run the program. See MSDN - Choosing a ClickOnce Update Strategy for details.
