Rather than suddenly paying for an ad-free solitaire subscription, you can put that money to better use and play a free solitaire game instead. How to Get Ad-Free Solitaire and Minesweeper Games Windows 8’s included Weather, News, Sports, and various other apps also included ads. Windows 10’s Weather app was packed with ads during the development process until user outcry led Microsoft to remove them. It’s just free for the users who wouldn’t normally bother paying for an upgrade license, anyway. Windows 10 costs over $100 if you build your own PC, manufacturers have to pay MIcrosoft for Windows 10, and business organizations are on pricy volume-licensing contracts and don’t get a free Windows 10 upgrade. Windows 10 may be a “free upgrade” to most people at the moment, but it’s still a paid product.
Really, this is just nickel-and-diming behavior from Microsoft.
