    Locks up in windwas 8.1


    Intermittent problem with daily challenge locking up. I guess Microsoft hasn't figured out how to make the program work reliably. I think it started in late June or early July. I never had any problems until they released windows 10, which is why I never
    installed it.

    Lock-up

    This game seems to want to lockup my computer when I go in no matter what time of the day it is.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Mahjong locks up

    Helen,

    I can give you some more information on Mahjong locking up ...

    It first started last Wednesday (15 Jan), Tuesday 14th was the last day it worked successfully. It will always lock up now without fail.

    I have a Surface Pro 2 with 256GB storage. It has been upgraded to Windows 8.1 and has Office 2013 installed. Apart from that not much installed on the base machine and certainly nothing knowingly installed last Wednesday when Mahjong stopped working. I
    noticed a couple of Windows updates were automatically installed last Wednesday, so I did uninstall these and try Mahjong again, but it still locks up.

    Will happily provide any more information that might help.

    I am unable to unlock any Minesweeper achievements! please help.

    In my case I had power management issues and poor performance when I updated to Windows 8.1. Microsoft Solitaire Collection in particular had lots of sound glitches.

    .

    After 3+ bad attempts to upgrade to 8.1 (about once a month since 8.1 came out, when I've had time to back up, update, then roll back), I ultimately had to back up all my data, do a factory reset, get all the Windows Updates, then upgrade to Windows 8.1
    from a relatively clean install of Windows 8.0.

    .

    Hopefully your upgrade goes better than my earlier ones did.

    .

    Once you're on Windows 8.1, go to the Store, bring up the settings, go to App Updates, and check for updates. Apps are supposed to update automatically in 8.1, but I've usually had to do the first one manually.

    .

    If you've been playing Minesweeper for awhile (I've been playing since April 2013 or so) quite a few of the new achievements will unlock on first play if you've already earned them.
