I have played World of Solitaire for years:

https://worldofsolitaire.com/

He has hundreds of games and variations. This is a labor of love all beautifully done. I highly recommend it. And best of all the games are absolutely free.

He also lets you “Hide Ads”. (I believe you need to register to hide ads, but I have been registered on this site for years.) This also registers your high scores and all game playing data. I have played over 8,000 games over the years!

You can still get all the original Win7 games for Win 10 from Winaero.com. I couldn’t attach any of their files, they are too big or not allowed. I unwind with Spider Solitaire every day!

When you unzip the file and run the .exe, the games are installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\.

Always create a fresh drive image before making system changes/Windows updates; you may need to start over!

We were all once "Average Users". We all have our own reasons for doing the things that we do with our systems, we don't need anyone's approval, and we don't all have to do the same things.

This was a great piece, Brian, (though I’m late). Particularly I want to highlight the section about changing the default browswer – no it won’t let you – but you asked me to install the extension – blocked, etc.

I ran into this a couple months ago, and figured it was me, which is what Microsoft makes you believe very often. So thanks for confirming.

Moreover, game on…
