    If you've already completed this on a Windows Phone, playing one game should unlock the achievement.

    This method requires you to use a Windows Phone because Microsoft seems to have patched the game to make the FreeCell cheat not work. That's Ok, because the game is shared across the two platforms, so your fastest time counts for both.

    KLONDIKE
    Set your game options to Draw 1, this will make the game much easier, thus getting you a faster completion time. Play until all the face-down cards are face-up or on the foundation piles, and all the cards from the deck are placed on the board. Then hit the solve button in the bottom right corner (do not waste time manually moving the cards on to the foundation piles). My fastest time was 2:12.

    SPIDER
    Make sure the game options are set to 1 Suit. You will likely have to play a few games to get a good time; but try and create free columns as soon as possible. My best time was 6:57

    FREECELL
    Under Game Options, change the game to #10913. This FreeCell game is referenced in virtually every solution because it is the easiest / quickest one to complete. You can easily get this in under a minute and a half. Remember, however, that this version requires you to use a Windows Phone, because Microsoft seems to have patched out the ability to pop the achievement if you change the game (basically it doesn't seem to work for people without switching to a WP before the last move). My best time was 0:23

    First character is the card value, second is the suit. T is Ten.
