Built-in vista games have a saved game bug

Any time Mahjongg Titan sees a saved game, it offers to resume play.
The problem is that the program forgets to delete the saved game (or
even update it). So every time you start the program until you save a
new game by exiting the program, it wants you to replay that game.

After a while, you start remembering the game and don't want to play it.
But you can't just start a new game as that counts as a loss in your
stats. That is bad. I saw the same bug in Solitare and have a reason
to believe that all the built-in Vista games with that saved game
feature have the same bug.

You could right-click on the game within games explorer and select saved
games..
This will open the folder to any saved games you have,from where you can
delete them.

I did. But the game should manage that for me.
