  1. VIEWS FOLDER

    PLEASE ALLOW US TO MOVE OR DELETE THE NEW "VIEWS" folder that's now appearing in our FOLDER list. It's not useful when people are already using folders to manage their mail. It's cumbersome in that it has to be closed whenever logging into AOL.

  4. See below.

    The home screen used to show stock market updates, points up or down. Now I have to go to the business icon on the left of the screen and it only show the percentages. Why the unnecessary change?

  7. window in "Write" email no longer is functioning as it should

    The "write" window's text (at my normal size: Tahoma 12pt is no longer readable. the text is tiny and so is the preassigned text in the write window itself and nothing the AOL remote technician has been able to help. She wanted me to change the size/resolution of my computer screen, but I do not want to -- because it is at it's recommended settings

    It is difficult to search for a specific folder and it would be useful to have a search bar for this.

  10. Pause automatic advancement of news items.

    For many years, once you started advancing news items, the automatic advance of news items stopped. Now, I have been told by AOL Assist, that per software changes by AOL automatic advance of new items is always on. This means that, once I select and read an article, the news items have advanced several stories past it, meaning that I have to manually backspace to get back to the next item after the one I was reading. Why are you making this harder to do, please change back to a more user friendly application.

  11. Welcome window "News" window keeps moving when paging throuugh articles

    The News window now has been changed to a smaller size and keeps moving when paging through the news articles so as to hit ads all the time. Very clever idea..NOT. Now have watch the arrows or you hit ads..Why this change? Please change back to original News window so it doesn't move around in the Welcome window.

  12. SPAM

    You provide nice ability to direct designated Emails to Spam. Why not provide an option to automatically delete it.

  13. If you are staying on Windows 7, do NOT reinstall Windows unless you want a hassle!

    If you are staying on Windows 7, do NOT reinstall Windows unless you want to go through the hassle of copying system files.

    I have a few Win7 computers and noticed that when I did a fresh install on one of them I could no longer download AOL Desktop Gold. It gave a "download error". I called tech support and they said Windows 7 is no longer supported, which is silly. Windows 7 still works perfectly.

    I had to take the installation files and Program Files folders and copy them from another computer to make it work. 11.0.4125 is the…

  16. disable welcome screen

    In either General or Browser settings, provide an option to disable the Welcome Screen. It is a memory hog and cause AOL Desktop Gold to freeze or randomly lock up.

  17. AOL's email ***** up

    Your new app for phones is disgusting. Go back to the old app that does not lead the person a news feed and other ****. When someone is on their phone they wish to check their email, not see your news feeds. Or at least on the new app give the user the ability to direct the opening page so they don't have to go through the news page. I know that it is probably a money making issue for AOL but please have some concern for the folks that use the app.

  19. Moderation is against the U.S. Constitution and is Marxist

    Please explain to me what is wrong with responding to someone saying that Hamas is going to Heaven, by replying "To meet their mail virgins for the men", or "To meet men who haven't had sex for the men". Both of these are rejected and do not harm anyone in the community or the readers. This is becoming unamerican and, even though you are private company, you cannot violate the rights of citizens to speak when it's not harmful. I feel a class action lawsuit coming.
