    AOL Desktop Gold problem with settings


    In late June, after having gotten a new Dell Inspiron 3880 PC, I downloaded and installed AOL Desktop Gold (Rev. 11.0.3316), and unfortunately one important thing on it doesn't work at all - the "Settings" button. Whenever I click on it, nothing happens, and if I try clicking on it again, all I get is a large blank window (in all black) that doesn't allow me to do anything. I would very much appreciate any help whatsoever - THANKS very much!

    :)

    AOL Gold Problem - Delayed Sign On

    The logs were to make sure there were no obvious problems with:
    windows operating syste (scannow)
    windows component store (restorehealth)
    drive file system (chkdsk switch)
    etc.
    No major problems were seen so the next step was clean boot.

    If the AOL software remains problematic despite all steps including clean install > consider using web browser and smartphone access > cancel AOL gold and save money
