  5. drive

    When I click on a google drive link in an email, the browser can not open it, and it says the browser is out of date, even though my app is up to date. Also, I think it would be great if you could add extension capabilities to the browser so I could have the last pass extension already in the browser when I use it. Thanks!

  8. Will Aol Desktop Gold be impacted by Census updating some security features on census.gov that are effective 10/11/2022?

    Will my Aol browser continue to work with the security updates to Census.gov going into effect on 10/11/2022?

    "To ensure you will continue to be able to access census.gov, please upgrade your browser to the latest version. 💻 Older browsers may fail to display websites correctly and lack updated security features. New browsers are more compatible with websites and provide stronger protection against security issues.

  9. password manager

    The current password manager doesn't offer to save on many websites, and it doesn't allow manual inputs. Users must continue to use paper and pencil to store the majority of their passwords.

    Suggest fixing your password manager or allowing use of other password manager programs.

  16. Sudden need to sign in each time

    After being signed in all day, now when I close AOL Gold, I have to sign back in instead of automatically having the browser open. Then my personal favorites are missing in the task bar, Edit settings doesn't work and I end up having to restart the PC to only have to sign back in again which fixes the "favorites on the task bar, but I get the "welcome, etc. sounds each time. Mail isnt impacted. I reset the sound by disabling them, now every time I have to sign in. Why?

  18. Changed Passwords not being saved

    Thank you for not closing this.. See my Post below

    IE, Edge, Firefox & Chrome all work as expected - not AOL's Browser.

  19. password saving STILL not working properly

    I've seen the Question "Save this password?" come up when adding a new URL login. So I know it CAN WORK - sometimes.

    BUT -

    I had changed my password for a site. The AOL browser tried to use the old one, and of course it failed. I entered the new password, but it was NOT SAVED, it continued to use the old one, I continued to enter the new one, to no avail - the old password was NOT replaced.

    Went to SETTINGS.- BROWSER - PASSWORDS, the box is Still checked.
    I DELETED the site's entry and stored password,…

  20. AOL Games

    The AOL games are not working even though we already have updated the flash player. We also did try to refresh the AOL server by uninstalling and re-installing the software. Also, tried to turn off the anti-virus, but still having the same issue.
