Windows 10: microsoft treasure hyunt pauses or freezes

Treasure hunt has been freezing or pausing for up to 15 seconds lately. The mouse also pauses in that game but not in the Solitare games. It seems like the game is uploading each change in picture and each mouse action to the web and waiting for something before actioning it. The game has also frozen and then dumped me out on occasion with either retaining the picks, dynamite and map levels or zeroing them back to 2 each, with no perceptible relationship. It can send me back to the original level 1 or keep me at the level I am playing when I relog into the game.


THe mouse works for all other programs.


I am using Windows Pro, version 17134.648


Is there a patch or fix I can apply or somewhere I can remove and reinstall Treasure Hunt? I would like to keep the 15 Map, 10 Dynamite and 10 Pick capacity I already have.


Cheers


Duncan
