Ads crash Solitaire when passing focus back to game.

Nerdy Woman · Mar 15, 2017

Some days it works, some days it doesn't. But after watching every Olive Garden, Oppenheimer, and Slots game ad
several times, I give up. Whether I'm playing daily tournament or event, The ads either 1) freeze at about 3 seconds in, then close the Solitaire app; or 2) finish the ad, show the game board, but instead of the belly band and play button, the app
closes, sending me back to the desktop.

I'm using an SP4 with Win 10 Build 15048.rs2 in tablet or desktop mode. This is no way to get players to buy the premium app!!!!

Solitaire still crashing with latest fast ring build and latest solitaire update after ad plays

Solitaire collection still crashes after advertisement plays when selecting daily challenges or events. Only certain ads cause this to happen for me specifically the Aldi ad will crash every time, where game ads typically do not crash the app. This has
been ongoing since upgrading in the to the creators version in the fast ring has started.

Don't pay to remove the ads as that doesn't seem to help! I did ... and the day after ... totally won't load (just get's a 'freeze screen' saying it's synching with the cloud!

In my case, the new version fixed a crash when clicking the "Awards" button in Daily Challenges.

As a non-Premium user, I noticed that if Solitaire loses focus (as can happen if a dialog from another program steals focus) running advertisements will now pause.

I'm having the same problem. Solitaire crashes after Oral B ad is played. No other ads do this.

The Solitaire Collection ran just fine yesterday. It showed the ad, you viewed the ad, then used the "X" in the top right corner, which brought you back to the solitaire game you were trying to play. Today, after the ad runs, it automatically takes you
to the Microsoft store. When you exit the store it brings you back to the solitaire game but runs another ad, then brings you to the Microsoft store. This happens repeatedly and you can't get past the ad to play the game. I'm wondering if the free version
of these games is going to not longer be available, or if MS is planning to fix this issue.

I'm having this problem, too. It Over the last week or so, every single video ad crashes the Solitaire app. Come on, Microsoft, sort it out.

When I play the daily challenge there is an automobile ad (Toyota, I think) that is crashing the program. I don't know why I bother. It is typical.
