Vista - Saved Titan Chess game won't go away

Hi All:
In Vista games, when I click Titan Chess a box always pops up saying
"do I want to continue the saved game". Problem is, I already did continue
the game until the point where I had to resign. Guess what, Vista is so
proud it beat me it wants to play the same darn game over and over. I've
tried starting a new game and playing to conclusion and then re-opening Titan
Chess, but there's the "do you want to continue the saved game" again.
Playing the same game to conclusion in either a win or a defeat and it still
comes back. I tried saving a new uncompleted game and saving it but then it
just keeps coming back after finishing it? How do I get rid of the saved
game and avoid that message?

Hi All:
I just realized I posted this in the wrong forum. Not sure where it
should be posted anyway but I apologize for my misplaced question.

There might be the game is saved and you could delete the file. I would not
know where though, but that's the only thing I can think of.

Open Games Explorer window, and select "Chess Titans"
Click the drop-down arrow near "Play" button at the top
Click "Saved Games"

When the "Saved Games" folder opens, delete the following file:

"ChessTitans.ChessTitansSave-ms"

Hi Ramesh:
That did the job! Thanks a lot.........in my old age I didn't see that
little arrow next to play in the games window! I do think they could improve
the game if the saved game just disappeared after the darn thing beats me LOL!

Hi again Ramesh:
Thanks for the help URL. I have to tell you.......I like the more
succinct directions you provided better than the verbose directions that
Microsoft help provides lol! Now, I wonder if I should start saving all the
games I'm winning and really torture Vista!
