Are there any old school Microsoft XP style freecell programs for Windows 10?

I'm suffering a Windows 10 laptop at the moment, work related issues.

Do I have to dig up a Windows XP machine in my garage and copy XP freecell over? I've read that works.

I tried the Microsoft Store version of freecell and it's x-box ugly bling with advertising.

My regular freecell obsession, on my regular desktop computer, my regular laptop, and my Raspberry Pi, is Aisleriot solitaire. Simple, no nonsense.

laptop came with Microsoft Solitaire Collection which is just basic. I told it I play only as Guest and offline so it doesn't bug me with stuff. I play every day.

... and when the advertising popped up I immediately uninstalled it.

I don't appreciate Microsoft peeking in on my Freecell obsession.
