What's the deal with this ???
all i see id aol desktop gold
Message from Leaf:
That explains the problem. AOL Desktop Gold is the program you’re using to open Ancestry.com, and it may not complete Ancestry’s browser validation check reliably. Windows 11 can still be compatible; the issue is likely the browser built into AOL Desktop Gold rather than Windows itself.
You’ll want to install and use the latest version of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox on your Windows 11 computer, then sign in to Ancestry.com there. This should avoid relying on AOL Desktop Gold’s browser for the security check.68th ranked -
New Tab Button in Browser
It would be easier workflow to have the New Tab button directly after the furthest existing tab, for example, if there are two tabs open, the New Tab button would be directly after the second tab. Or one tab open, the New Tab button would be directly after that one tab. Instead of having the New Tab button all the way to the right, away from the tabs.

Browser context menu
Just a suggestion for the context menu in the browser when you select a text. For the search menu for the selected text, the context menu currently shows "Search on [selected text]" "Dictionary Search on [selected text]" and "Video Search on [selected text]".
It confused me at first, because this isn't what we would say when selecting searching. We would search for something, not search on something. So I am providing feedback to change the context menu to show "Search for [selected text]" "Dictionary Search for [selected text]" and "Video Search for [selected text]".

Fix authentication issues on multiple websites (Browser Support Issue?)
Authentication is failing on multiple sites through the built-in browser in AOL Desktop Gold. We confirmed that authentication was working in another web browser (Edge) using the same credentials on the same machine on the same day (ruling out bad credentials, bad machine settings, and possible website outages). It seemed to be somewhat random, in that some sites would authenticate and some wouldn't.
We tried fully uninstalling and re-installing the app, as well as clearing footprints. Unsure if this is related to your implementation of CefSharp or how it's configured. I really can't provide any more information since the built-in…

Why can't AOL Gold keep up with my chosen Browser when I play a Game?
I use Google Chrome for my active browser whether it be on AOL Gold or when working with another program. My current Chrome browser is up to date according to Google and on my Desk Top, using Windows 11. The problem is when AI go to "Games" on the tool bar, and attempt to play any of the games which are sub let to Masque LLC, it tells me that my "Browser is at 144, and I can ignore or update", the trouble is my Browser is already updated to 148, but for some reason AOL is refusing to note…

Download Time
The download manager is great. However, could you update it to say how long it would take to download a file that is in the process of downloading?

Add an Update Password Feature
The convenience of the Password saving feature is marred by our inability to change the password when necessary. I just got an alert about a Google data breach and had to change that password. AOL refuses to allow the change in the Browsers' Password manager's box. Data breeches are now almost a monthly event, so this feature would be a great addition.
