Why won't our Microsoft Solitaire Collection open anymore?

Got Windows 8.1 when it came installed on an Acer computer, and used to be able to play the embedded Microsoft Solitaire Collection.

Now, however, when we click on it to open it, the Microsoft Solitaire Collection blue screen flashes on for an instant, then goes off and displays our desktop scene.

How do I fix this issue, so we can continue playing Microsoft Solitaire versions such as Tri Peaks, Free Cell and Klondike?

Hi ADACON

As we know, these games like Solitaire, Minesweeper, and Hearts aren't installed automatically with Windows 8.1. If you are playing other version we recommend download them for free from the Windows Store if you like them. We've added dazzling new visuals and daily challenges to make them even better than before. And all three games are available to install on your PC for free.

Have you solved the problem yet?

I have exactly the same issues - Solitaire Collection was installed and working fine and then suddenly refused to load. Have uninstalled and installed many times and from the link given below - still no joy. Have also done internet research to no avail - the only help I find is to try reinstalling the program!

I too have the same problem Solitaire just stopped working. It seems as if most apps have also stopped.

I just have my mother in law in the phone.

Desperate. Solitaire wont work :-) She clicks the icon, but it just hang there and doing nothing. In the job list I ould find solitaire.exe as if it was running, but in the program list it was stated as temporary stopped.

At the same time her Mcafee Antivirus was outdated. They wanted money.

I Choose to start with the Mcafee challenge, and installed insted a free version of AVG, then I uninstalled Mcafee.

After that, and a restart, solitaire works fine again.

So.. it could be something with security settings in your antivirus program. Just a hunch based on my experience.
