  6. Save Column Widths

    While this is not a new idea, I tough a new appeal might draw attention to it. On the default AOL Desktop screen are “My Mail Folders” on the left and individual emails under “Date”, “From”, and “Subject” headings on the right. I can adjust the width of the “My Mail Folder” area. I can adjust the width of the three email headings. If I switch between the “Inbox”, “New”, “Old”, and “Sent” tabs, the widths remain. However, if I close AOL desktop, they do not get saved. Even going to the “Search Mail” tab and back, resets all of…

    Stop relocating the AOL icon on my desktop. I have placed it just where it is most convenient for me. Please leave it alone. Not a big deal, but it is an irritant.

  9. Don't ask about Fingerprint sign on EVERY SINGLE TIME

    Why does it ask if I want to use Fingerprint EVERY time I log on? Once a month is all I need. But multiple times a day is not good.

    On my Dell EBT 2250 PC using the Windows 11 operating system, I am not able to change the privacy options in my AOL account.

  15. Afraid to update and see what's been screwed up that was working fine before the update

    I am leery every time there is a new update anymore. Every time there is one it screws something that worked up. My email has been horrible with lag in opening, send a response, typing sentences since the last 2 updates. I am also so tired of seeing "AOL NOT RESPONDING: as I watch a blue circle spinning, see the "loading" little dots spinning. $17 plus a month for aggravation that is soon going to be cancelled, like you guys really seem to care less about. It's not my internet connect, have no issues with EDGE only AOL. Forget about…
