Solitaire no longer working - blocked by ad that does not play - version 4.1.5154​

Hi Garrymcmartin, my name is Adam.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing inappropriate ads while playing Microsoft Solitaire. I understand how frustrating it can be to have to deal with unwanted ads. Here are some steps you can take to reduce the number of ads you see:

1. Upgrade to the premium version of the app: The premium version of the app eliminates ads completely. It costs $1.99 per month or $14.99 per year.

2. Install an ad-blocker: You can install an ad-blocker like Adguard to block ads in the Solitaire game.

I hope these suggestions help you reduce the number of ads you see while playing Microsoft Solitaire.

Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
Adam.

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.

If the ad creates stress, you may want to uninstall it as a whole.

Geth that does really not help, I like playing Solitaire and have been playing the Microsoft version since the early 90s. I just want these ads gone. I can cope with small ads off to one side but this big ad that wont let me play before I have watched it,
is not friendly.

I may have to uninstall it if MS does not see the need.

My records for wins since the first of the year on Solitaire and Mahjong have both disappeared. If you try playing a game by itself, it will let you play. Offers a free spin etc if you listen to their ad, and this works but the daily challenge does not
work.

Yes, starting with Insider build 15019, Solitaire Collection no longer shows the Events tiles. The current version is 3.14.1181.0, while the version of Solitaire that still let's you play Events is 3.12.12200.0. I've reported it using the Feedback hub and
I'm trying to find a way to restore the older version but haven't found a way yet. The only way to play Events that I'm aware of is to roll back to the previous build or restore a system image made while running 15014 or earlier.

This is very frustrating!
