The OLD e-mail works so much better than your NEW SYSTEM. Will it be permanent?

cefsharp browser
I understand that back when I started with AOL in 1993, the cefsharp browser subprocess was the method for AOL to connect to the internet. This is 2026 you really need to update the code so not to be dependent on this subprocess. It takes up extra memory, once on it keeps generating multiple instances of the program that eats memory. It seems to cause other multiple issues too. I am finding on line websites that do not work with AOL but works fine with Edge or Chrome. I have to wonder if this sub routine is causing the issue.…

something broken between AOL Desktop Gold and Facebook
In the past few days when I go to Facebook from inside my AOL software, I type in my email and password and the reCAPTCHA comes up and takes me through all kinds of loops before it says "try again". For 17 times!!! When it finally does accept what I'm doing, it takes me right back to the Facebook login screen and when I reinput the info, I'm sent right back to the reCAPTCHA. Is that something broken on the AOL side or the FACEBOOK side? If I come out of AOL and go in straight from Edge, I get…
