    Ads on pre-installed MS Solitaire Collection?


    Many seem to be saying this app has ads and you have to pay to stop them. Is this true?

    I have tried it, and after forcing it to stop talking xbox rubbish, it didn't seem to flick up ads.

    Looking to assuage my sister's worries!

  3. Solitaire not working on Windows 10 Pro

    Switch to Linux. Not only does it have a superior solitaire collection. Solitaire doesn't demand you be online or sit through ads to play it.

    Windows 10 is a load of advertising garbage, I'm done with MS.

    I took one look at that opening front page and uninstalled it off my computers.

    What a mess!

    If you were to scroll to the bottom of the home page of the above screenshot, you will see a banner ad. During a game of Spider Solitaire, there are no ads. On the game over screen, there is an ad. When I clicked on the upgrade to premium button, there were choices for $1.49 for one month or $9.99 for one year.

    I don't find the ads to be obtrusive.

    Thanks for that input. Appreciated.

    I found an installer for the old Win 7 games and I think I will get my sister to use those. All the old favorites as we once knew them!

    Cheers.

    Windows 10 is Free - but you will have to pay for everything else...

    MS can sell a OS once every 10 years or charge you a monthly or yearly subscription fee for the apps..

    Google, Apple, Android and now MS - all give the OS away - because they want the subscription revenue

    Thanks for your reply - my problem is I cannot play solitaire offline and when I play it online it asks to log in using a ms account so I use my outlook email but it doesn't recognise it to log in ... so I wont buy until I can log in

    You can play the games app without a sign in. Just try everything to skip the sign in (can't remember how exactly I did it now!) and after that it doesn't ask.

    If you want the win 7 games, search on youtube (win 7 games for win 10) and find clip by mjd7999. There is a download link on the header. At your own risk, but my scan didn't pick up anything after installing it, but make your own mind up on this.
