    Need to delete solitaire


    I play Solitaire too much. So i want to remove the Microsoft Solitaire Collection and Classic Solitaire (free), But neither shows up in my program list or in Revo uninstaller. How do I get rid of them?

    Look at the Properties of the solitaire shortcut.
    You'll see the full path to the executable program.
    Open Explorer in that folder. Delete the program file.
    Then delete the shortcut.

    Hi Newmaven

    I searched for the app using the taskbar search and an uninstall link appeared.

    Or via Apps & Features.

    Or, an elevated PowerShell with the following;

    Code:
    Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection | Remove-AppxPackage

    Check under Apps within Revo. Microsoft apps aren’t listed under the main Program list within that software.

    OOPs, I did forget where Revo shows some MS Apps.

    Thanks to @Newmaven for letting me know one of these solutions worked for them.

    Please mark the thread as solved, this might help another user in the future.
    Thanks in advance

    Problem is once you know how to remove it, you know how to reinstate it!

    Hi there

    Try Hearts as well !!!!!! That's just as addictive.

    Without those games how do you manage to sit through some pointless boring meetings -- especially if you have a load of those type of "consultants" from Accenture or equivalent around who seem to have endless pointless "Townhall" type meetings which require attendance of loads of people (small meetings are always more effective) .

    WFH (Working from Home) these days at least for most of the week for loads of people is often the best way now.

    What's surprising is that while the press (for obvious reasons) seem to all be singing from the same hymnsheet "Get Back to the Office" -- often citing that it's younger people who want to go back and need the experience - in most of the EU the 18 - 25 age group were actually the people more in favour of remote working than many other groups -- almost nobody wants to go back full time -- so you will have to control your addiction if working at home. !!!!!!

    Cheers
