Windows 10: Microsoft Solitaire Collection has disappeared from my PC.

Microsoft Store says Microsoft Solitaire Collection is installed but it does not show up when I press the windows button. If I try to open it from Microsoft Store there is an initial flash of a blue square but then it disappears. I am running Windows 10 and was previously able to play Solitaire.
