Wat? What are the purchases in Minesweeper and Solitaire? (My old laptop can't get Win11, thankfully I guess). Anyone could screenshot?
- wang_li 4y agoSolitaire in windows 10 has ads. If you want to disable, you’ve got to pay.
- johnwalkr 4y agoNot only ads but also lots of fluff. I just opened it for the first time in a while and it had to load a new EULA. it took almost 30s to get into a game. Once you’re in there is an XP system, and notifications to get a subscription or buy card designs. Ironically it costs $2.99 to get the windows xp card designs. Thankfully it’s easy to find the windows xp versions which were the best, and they still work.
