Don't start on Freecell there is no remedy for the addiction.
I recently changed to Windows 8 and there is not Freecell on there.
I discovered that there were new versions you could download which were horribly loud and clangy, and flashy and totally irritating. Not a bit bit like my lovely old dignified version.
After a lot of Googling I found a site which explained how to copy my old XP etc Freecell files to my new machine. On there were a lot of comments from people wanting their old Freecell back.
It was possible to copy the necessary files from my Windows XP version over to Windows 8 but it was a tad technical and might need someone who understands the jargon!
I am so pleased it's a familiar friend come back.
If anyone else has lost the old version I could dig out the details of how to do it.
