Windows 10 repair Microsoft Solitaire Collection

The only way that you are going to get the Solitaire Collection working again is to create a new User Profile.

I had to do this when it stopped working for me. It's not too much of a problem, but can take a while, especially if you have a lot of files to copy across to the new account from your old one.

I wouldn't worry about your wins as these are stored to your online Microsoft account, so as soon as you log back in to the Collection, your previous records are restored.

Whilst my Solitaire Collection is now working as it should, I've now developed a problem with Candy Crush Soda; again, it works on my girlfriend's account, but refuses to run on mine. I think that the Apps that run exclusively from the Start window are the only ones affected by these issues and that there is obviously a serious flaw in the way the interface has been designed and coded by Microsoft. They should be doing something about it, rather than just totally ignoring their paying public and brushing the whole thing under the carpet. I know my impressions of Windows 10 that were initially complementary have taken a nosedive because of these issues; if these seemingly simple issues cannot be resolved, what other potentially harmful coding errors are there lurking beneath the surface of the O/S?

Well it looks like you might have something there ,next question is how do I create a new profile?? I'm not that good with this thing ???

thank you for any help you might be able to give ,Jim

Hi Jim,

I found the following site that has a pretty good guide to creating a new account.

http://www.techbout.com/fix-corrupt-user-profile-windows-10-9139/

After you've created the new account, you will have to delete the old one before you can associate your new account with your Microsoft Live account, as the Live account can only be linked to one local PC account. If you have any problems when you get to that stage, then ask back here again. :)
