Where Does Microsoft Solitaire Store Progress on Windows?
Where Microsoft Solitaire Collection keeps progress and settings on Windows for backup and moves.
Last updated
Microsoft Solitaire Collection syncs progress through Xbox Live with local state in its app package folder: collections, statistics and settings beside cached events. Signing in merges both sides.
Copy the package folder with the game closed for local backup; cloud covers the rest on signed in accounts. Event progress expires on its own schedule regardless of copies. Reinstalls pull cloud progress back on sign in.

Frequently asked questions
How do I move Solitaire progress to a new PC?
Sign in with the same Xbox account and let progress sync, then verify collections on the new PC. Daily challenges follow the account while local settings rebuild. Reinstalls cost nothing synced.
Does Solitaire use Xbox cloud saves?
Open the Xbox app settings and read the sync state. Solitaire saves through Xbox Live when signed in. Local only progress stays in the package folder until sign in uploads it.
