Your Java environment may have been auto-updated. You will then need to re-install GameColony Java add-on - see below.
First you need to make sure to use the right web browser for Canasta: please do NOT use Google Chrome browser or Windows 10 Edge browser - these browsers cannot display Java games at this time.
To use Java games on Windows, please use ONLY Internet Explorer.
Internet Explorer is still present in all Windows versions, even Windows 10. To open Internet Explorer on Windows 10, first use their default web browser 'Edge' and after going to gamecolony.com, select Edge's menu (three dots) followed by "Open with Internet Explorer".
Now, if you already have Java (from www.java.com) you must install Java add-on:
GameColony Java add-on for Windows
GameColony Java add-on for Mac

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
