Still the same problems after update
Still getting Not Responding after your update this past week. Still having lag time in opening emails and when they're loading. When deleted list of SPAM and deleted emails appear for permanent deletion, shaded lines appear before everything is loaded/appears. there is also lag time and not instant like it use to be. Ads still appear in my main email...why am i paying for GOLD??? You said to report a bug and I did but I'm sure other people are still having these problems as well. TEST BEFORE RELEASE!!!

Out going emails

AOL adding an unremoveable header/footer to a composed body email during printing!
How to delete auto-printing of Date, Subject, To and From when printing emails! I have copied and pasted into a blank composed email for 30 years. NEVER have these AOL auto headers/footers appeared until last week! In print preview, I've always turned off headers/footers and I would be able to print just the body of the email I composed. I still turn those printers options off but now AOL has attached these titles (Subject, Date, To and From) when I'm simply printing an email that I'm not even sending to anyone! My AOL address is autoprinting at the top of…

Need link extension for to AOL Browser for Acrobat Reader
Links don't don't work in the Adobe Acrobat Reader anymore using AOL browser. They only work now in Microsoft or the Google browsers. I don't want to use those browsers as default. Can AOL add the Acrobat Reader "link extension" to the AOL browser please?

CompuServe Gold sounds
It would be great to have the CompuServe welcome/gotmail/goodbye sounds on the CompuServe Gold client instead of the AOL sounds.
I have the sound files from a CompuServe 2000 install if you need them.

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?

Please add the ability to attach a screenshot or video when submitting a bug report. Much easier for the devs and for me.

Increase size of "Read" Mailbox number from 10 point to 14 or more. Its too tiny the way it is.
Increase size of "Read" Mailbox number from 10 point to 14 or more. Its too tiny the way it is. Evenj on a large display and wearing reading glasses it is many times difficult tom impossible to make it out without moving right up to screen. Would not cost AOL anything to correct this oversight.

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.
13th rankedWe are working to improve our password manager and the functionality to updates passwords etc.

bring back the hover animations from version 9.0 optimized
AOL desktop gold still looks and feels like 9.0 optimized from 2003 however, there are no hover over animations like in the 2003 version, that would be a nice aesthetic touch! also provide a toggle within settings to give users the option to turn it off it they don't like it. I can provide examples if needed lol :)
