Microsoft Hearts -- Kill choice screens

When I load Microsoft Hearts, it demands to know whether I want to continue the previous game. When I exit (which I usually do when I get hopelessly behind), it demands to know whether I want to save the game.

Is there any way to force Hearts to skip these steps. I'll gladly edit the game file if anyone knows how.

On the menu, Game -> Options, uncheck the last two boxes.

Nevermind, that didn't do what I thought it would.

If you open the Games window and right-click the Hearts icon, one of the choices is "saved games". I believe that takes you to the directory where they're stored. You can then delete the file you find there.

That stops it from asking if you want to resume your previous game. I don't believe there's any way to make it cease asking if you want to save an unfinished game when you quit. (For that I use an old utility called RTVReco.)

um... that's for Vista. You didn't say what OS you were using.
