Spider Solitaire and hearts of Vista/Windows 7

I recently bought a new HP Envy with Windows 8 (previously Vista) computer and updated my laptop Windows 7 HP for Windows 8.

I would like to know how do I return my Spider Solitaire & hearts playing cards for Windows 7 and Vista.  It is very annoying for me.  The version on Windows 8 is terrible.  It was so handy on my desk.  I still see the files on my Windows 7 laptop that has been upgraded, but I can't make them work.

Is it possible to buy the same games for Windows 8?  From my XP computer for many years these were still embedded in my PC.

PLEASE report them...

Susan

Here are a few additional steps that you can follow.
 
 Step 1
 
You must first copy all the games to some removable drive as a USB key.
 
Then, go to "C:\Program Files\" and copy the Microsoft Games folder in the removable drive or disc.
 

 
 Step 2
 
Now, go down to "C:\Windows\System32\" on your Windows 7 location and copy the .dll files for the games as well.
 

 
 Step 3
 
Now, go to the system of Windows 8 and navigate to the location to "C:\Program Files\" and paste the Microsoft Games folder.
 

 
Step 4
 

Paste all the .dll files in the Microsoft Games folder.
 

 
Now, your work is done.

  • How can I update the version of Spider Solitaire XP on my desktop Windows 8?

    I liked the XP version on Spider Solitaire and would like to have it and lonely on my desktop Windows 8.  How can I do this?

    This game, as well as all other Microsoft used to put at the disposal of their operating systems have been removed by the design of Windows 8 and are not available. You can find a lot of free or sell card games in the App store. Your other choice would be to search the Web for third-party games.  Hope this helps and if you need any additional aid station and we will be happy to help you.

    The above opinion is mine and mine nothing and does not necessarily reflect that of Microsoft, it's employees, or any other Member of this forum.

  • Fix for Windows Solitaire and hearts

    Whenever I start solitaire or hearts for Windows 7, it always appears in the middle of the previously saved game even that I never actually recorded. Of course I can cancel out of the game, but it always ends up as a game lost in the statistics. This can happen as a result of being off tension or something like that, but I hope you get this fixed if I can. Has anyone experience this problem and how did you work around it or get it fixed?

    Try to open the folder withyour name here C:\Users\ and then there is a folder "Registered Parties" inside.  Delete game save from there, and then try to open the game again.

    I have the same problem as Marie-Claude.  Windows Messaging will check two email accounts, but the aol imap account will not send or receive, and it is my primary email address.  I have a security zone of windows asking for my username and password which will return an 800cccd91 error (I think) and the message that they are not valid.  The user name and password work fine by going directly on aol.com.  I turned off my avg antivirus mail and makes them require a secure password is not checked in the properties of the account.   I first noticed this problem yesterday after I had changed suppliers for remote access, but with aol imap is the only thing affected. My virus programs and spyware are up-to-date. I've seen several references to this same problem and the only other thing that I've seen mentioned that I did not is to remove and reinstall this account. If I do this, it removes all my emails stored under this account in windows mail?  What this has to do to my other computers running xp and outlook?  Other solutions?  Thank you

    Delete and recreate an e-mail account in Windows Mail lost all the data. You would only on the affected computer. Be sure to restart Windows Mail after deleting the account and before recreating the account.
     
    If no improvement:
    Your AVG antivirus has probably been installed with its default installation option that installs an email scanner. Just disable his e-mail analysis
    is not a sufficient remedy. Uninstall AVG and then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which then allows you to deselect install his embarrassing email
    scanning module. Better yet, replace it with the free Microsoft security program:
