    Vista Minesweeper, saved games

    The 'save' option in minesweeper is a good idea, but it has become an
    annoyance because I saved a game, later played & finished it, and still every
    time I start minesweeper, it asks me if I wish to play the saved game. I
    don't wish to be prompted any more, but there appears to be no way to stop
    it. has anyone found a way?

    Delete the save game.

    Start -> <username> -> Saved Games -> Microsoft Games and so on.

    You can also right-click on Minesweeper in the Games Explorer and go
    straight to the save folder.
