Solitaire - Pyramid - Fails to start

Same here, but for me it's just the Pyramid game. Not in the Daily Challenges or Events, just the regular Pyramid game. All the others (Classic Solitaire/Spider/Freecell/TriPeaks) seem to load fine. Even in the Daily Challenges Pyramid loads ok, just
if I go to play the regular game. I recently upgraded to W10 Creator, but that was a few days ago, and everything seemed to be fine. Then, as you said, a couple of days ago I was playing Pyramid and the whole MS Solitaire crashed. When I went to start the
game again, Pyramid wouldn't load, just that spinning circle and "Loading" for ever and ever.

I take a little solace in the knowledge that it's not just me.

It sounds like it's the pyramid event on Solitaire collection. It's probably a technical error. They will be working on a fix for it.

Same problem - was playing pyramid 3 days ago - it froze, crashed the microsoft solitaire collection program. All other games work - no pyramid. Pyramid DOES work on the daily challenges, just not the standalone. WSReset doesn't work. deleting, reinstall
doesn't work.

That's how many games end. With a random draw of the cards, sometimes at least one of a pair is behind all the matching cards so that came cannot be completed. All the Daily Challenge games are guaranteed to be solvable, but none of the regular games are.
In this case, the best you can do is to clear all the cards except the top 10 and 3 which will give you the highest possible points, but then you'll need a new draw to continue.

I'm following you now, you mean skip the deck within the current game, not skip to a new game. I don't think I've specifically seen that feature in any card game. It wouldn't be a bad feature to add.
