When Windows 10 came out, the internet was filled with stories of Microsoft now showing non-skippable video ads after every session of Solitaire. And the only way to get rid of them is to subscribe for $1.49/month or $9.99/year.

As you’d expect, office workers across the entire North American subcontinent have revolted. Their favorite time was at risk. They’d rather stick to Windows XP, some of them probably shouted. XP never messed with them. Anyway, the new luxurious Microsoft Solitaire Collection is not worth the price.
But like many Windows 10 stories this week, this one was also misreported.

Your right to play Free Solitaire is safe
And this is what Solitaire looks like now. Oh, how far have we come.
Ok so this is low down. You can still play Solitaire for free on Windows 10. The most popular form of the game – Spider is free to play. No video ads, nothing.
If you don’t know how to get started, here’s a little tutorial.
Click Begin button.
Now or search Microsoft Solitaire Collection or detect it in the right column of the Start menu. If you can’t find it, download it from the Windows Store.
Click on it and you will be asked to sign in with your Microsoft account. You also need to agree to the terms and conditions to allow Microsoft to upload data to its cloud. This ensures that your Solitaire points are never lost, even if your PC crashes.
Of course, you’ll need to be connected to an active internet connection to do all this.
Once all the settings are done, you will now see the screen below.
Lots and lots of Solitaire stuff ha.
What’s not free advertising
From this screen, if you play the game Pyramids or TriPeaks, you will have to see ads at the end of each game. But these games are mostly out of your reach. And I say it lovingly. I am also one of those people. I mean, I can’t even understand FreeCell, now there’s a way for me to win at TriPeaks.
See who’s tracking you online: Websites everywhere are tracking your online usage to better target your ads. You can see who is following you and block them. If you’re on Android, you can also block ads there.
And these games are more professional. They are really for professionals. These games have Microsoft sanctioned Facebook pages where people brag about their scores and everything.
Play on Playa
So go ahead, click that Spider-shaped box and claim for free what is really yours. Hours of peak productivity time are waiting to be wasted.
