Timed Challenge for Tripeaks Adventure today on Microsoft Solitaire Collection

I wanted to spend only an hour playing this. I'd been playing on and off for a total of about 45 minutes. This was reflected in the timer on the Tripeaks Adventure as well. (So far, so good.)

I came back to the computer to finish the final challenge (positive thinking) and when I looked it said I'd been playing for 6 hours, 10 minutes and some odd seconds. I wouldn't be able to sit still for that long! Signed out of the game so it shouldn't
still be tallying time and I sign back in to finish when I come back.

Anyone else having this issue and know the cause? (If I was a really competitive person, I'd be screaming about it being a travesty etc etc etc. ;-)

TIA

:)

 

TriPeaks unable to load

I have been having problems in getting TriPeaks to load and as a result, I couldn't complete my daily challenges. Whenever I click on TriPeaks, it displays the message 'We are having some trouble connecting to the Internet to download Microsoft Solitaire
Collection data...' This applies to all forms be it challenges or collections

The other solitaire games in the collection can still be played though.

What can I do to resolve this?

 

Microsoft Solitaire star club

What I meant to say earlier, is the following: I have had the third collection, Coral Cove, for awhile now, but am stuck on Pyramid (Hard Timed Card Challenge) and Hard (Klondike Timed Solve Challenge) in the Wild West Collection, and Klondike (Timed Solve
Challenge) and Pyramid (Timed Card Challenge) and Expert (TriPeaks Timed Board Challenge and FreeCell Timed Solve Challenge) in the Coral Cove collection. I wish there were tons more, so I could work on others while trying to figure out the ones I have yet
to accomplish. Any word yet on when that will be and how many they intend to put out?
