I am seeing the same problem. Relatively new 8.1 install. Minesweeper adventure worked for a few days and then stopped. I removed the app and reinstalled it and it worked again. For a few days...

Today I created a new local account, tied it to the same Microsoft account in order to install the game.

It installed and ran adventure fine.

So I signed out and signed into my normal account. Minesweeper Adventure still fails.

Get the splash screen. Click on Adventure and it bring up the green load screen for about 4 seconds then back to the Windows startup screen. The task manager still shows Minesweeper running.

This appears to be a resource issue tied to the user account.

Are you referring to Treasure Hunt (the standalone app) or Adventure Mode (the mode within Microsoft Minesweeper)?

Agreed this seems to be the same issues as Minesweeper Adventure

I too am running Windows 8.1: Version 6.3, build 9600 but on a Sony VAIO. I just installed Windows 8.1 a day ago. Before that I had no problem with Minesweeper. Now Adventure Mode starts to load but then crashes. I can play the Daily challenges without
a problem. This Minesweeper problem is only one of the problems I'm having since installing Windows 8.1.
