Windows 10: Have stopped using solitaire collection because of full screen really obnoxious ads

Yesterday I started getting full screen loud and obnoxious ads while playing solitaire. I don't like the small ads, but I can put up with them, but the new ads are over the top. I am not going to pay Microsoft to stop the ads, so I will find solitaire games on the internet and cease using the Microsoft classic solitaire collection. I find it hard to believe that people will put up with the ads, and I believe that many will just move away from Microsoft games as I am going to do.
