  1. Stop relocating the AOL icon on my desktop.

    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.

  7. 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…

  10. Reporting Violations and Muting Trolls

    For over a year, I've reported and complained about blatant violations of your Community Guidelines along with the inability to permanently mute apparent paid and/or alleged AOL employee trolls. One would expect if a violation is reported to receive notification whether or not it was approved or disapproved, but that doesn't happen. Further, there are trolls that post obvious lies and propaganda and beyond never getting an answer to violations, I never get an email or bell icon notification of their replies which leads me to believe these people are being protected. I'm unable to mute these people-even after muting…

    Did AOL change the search engine because the current one with AI as the first answer and then the other is sorely lacking in information that was available online before.

  14. fix YGM sound

    Are We ever going to get YGM sound back? Your tech people must not be to smart not to be able to fix 1 simple problem. We are paying for that service and not getting Our monies worth. At least tell AOL members if We are going to get it back or NOT. My next step to to contact AOL HQ's.

  16. 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…

  20. 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…
