How do you transfer browser saved passwords to a new PC? Export does not do it.
Transferring Browser passwords to new computer. Need to find a way to copy/transfer AOL Browser passwords (saved in settings-browser-passwords) to a new PC. Used a Laplink PCmover program (with ethernet cable) to transfer most of my Win 10 PC to a new Win 11 PC. Program seemed to work OK, The only thing I noticed at 1st was that ALL my saved passwords for all my Favorites site were not in the Settings-Browser-Password area. (and I must have 50-75 or more saved and still on my old PC) How do I get them transferred?
UNDER older export processes it use to show that passwords were possibly copied into the export file along with other user files; but NOW, current Export processes do not show that passwords will be copied and saved into that export file on a flash drive.
I am not computer literate or an expert by no means. It just does not seem fully logical that there is no way to process a transfer of these passwords to a new PC without having to type in and try to log into almost hundreds of sites on my new PC to try to save all these passwords again in the AOL Settings files.
If there is a way, and I'm just not seeing it, I would greatly appreciate any Positive Help.
I have utilized AOL Help Tech Support (3 different techs for several hours on remote support) and they have not been able to find me a work around.
I can't believe that after AOL has been around for what 20+years, that there is no possible way to do this.
Please Help This to me is a Major problem at this time.
I have changed PCs before and this seems to be the only time that I have had this problem. I am an old time user of AOL , people laugh at me, but I am very comfortable with it.
Somebody needs to find a workaround to be able to copy or transfer browser saved passwords to different PCs.
