I tried to open the solitaire collection this morning and it will not open.  I did a re-bot and it still would not open.  Is there a software glitch?

    Hello all,

    This powershell command will remove the solitaire, then you will need to install it again from Store.

    1. Open PowerShell - Run as Admin
    2. Execute Get-AppxPackage*solitaire*|Remove-AppxPackage
    3. Restart Windows at the end of command
    4. Open Store and reinstall Solitaire

    Or you can reinstall it using this command:

    1. Save the installation path of Solitaire using this command: $manifestpath=(Get-AppxPackage*solitaire*).InstallLocation +"\Appxmanifest.xml"

    Value should be like this $manifestpath="C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection_3.3.8040.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Appxmanifest.xml"

    1. Run the install again: Add-AppxPackage-register$manifestpath–DisableDevelopmentMode

    If you have Store not working at all, follow this article:

    I had this problem, and I resolved it by doing a system restore. I chose a restore point that was earlier than the date I started having a problem. The system restore worked for me. I found this solution by quite a bit of searching on the internet, and a video at 

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IoyFxNtoOw

    It is about 5 minutes long. After watching the video I had Solitaire up and running in less than 15 minutes (the restore process does take a few minutes, and requires a reboot).

    I  have windows 10 on my laptop, and Solitaire collection worked fine for about 2 days,  now it will not even open.   I did leave it trying to open for 2 hours yesterday, still nothing.   Hope someone can give some advice how to sort it.

    Also since having Windows 10 I cannot access the app store once again it will not open.
