Windows 10: Sudoku Ad freezing games AGAIN!!!

Every so often, Sudoku freezes on me with nothing responding (but its clock continuing to count) either with a blank pane where an ad would normally be or (occasionally) with a specific ad in that location. It is fairly obvious that it is failing to deal properly with an ad that is 'malformed' in some way, but in a properly designed program, this should freeze only the ad pane, and there should be an overriding timeout even on that. At the moment this problem is so severe (with a blank pane) that it is impossible to complete even an easy game. Given that such proper design is apparently beyond the wit of your programmers, could someone not test the ads for 'sanity' before placing them in the rotation.

I would happily pay a small amount for a version of Sudoku without Ads, to entirely avoid this immensely irritating problem, but there is no paid version of this game.

Microsoft Sudoku Freezing

Microsoft Sudoku freezes during game play, the clock continues to tick, but the interface does not respond until a new Advert has been loaded.

Same issue as reported here which is still unsolved
