Windows 10 - is Xbox server down

[Ashlynfan]

When I run Windows 10 Solitaire and try to connect to "Daily Challenges" I get this message:

My Internet connection is NOT down since I can connect to multiple other sites.

I can connect to Event: Spider Mini and Star Club with no issues.

My suspicion is that the Xbox server (where scores are recorded) is down or unreachable.

It has been that way for several hours now.

I have tried rebooting my computer (both cold and hot start) with no success.

Anyone else have this connection problem?

I use itr regularly. Working 100% here.
Try going direct into Xbox and check if it requires a refresh of your login.

Tried that - same result.
also, re-booted my modem - again same result.

How do I open a Support ticket to resolve this issue?

Uninstall the MS solitaire app, reboot and then re-download the app from the MS store.

My concern with "Uninstall the MS solitaire app, reboot and then re-download the app from the MS store" is this:
will all of my high scores and achievements be lost?

Are you signed in to the game? If yes, then no problem at all. If you're not.....then no.

I personally, delete every game that windows 10 has....bunch of junk app with advertising all over the place. Then force you to sign in so you get get/buy.....bunch of crap.

I play the old Windows 7 style games on my windows 10 PC.
