Windows 10: I can no longer sync AOL mail in Win 10

I have tried every fix on the internet. All of a sudden I cannot add AOL mail in Win 10. It keeps saying settings are out of date, but I can't see how I have changed all IMAP setting, I have changed the PW many times, nothing works

:)

 

Getting AOL Mail to work with Win 10 mail App

If AOL Mail is not working in win 10 Mail, try this:

Remove AOL account from Win 10 Mail

Login to AOL Online . Under your name select "Account Info"

On the left select "account security"

at the bottom hover curser over "manage App and Passwords

Click "Generate Password" A Window opens with "Select App"

"Choose Outlook Desktop" Then click Generate. You will get a code.
Highlight and COPY You will need to paste it later.
----------------------------------------------------------

Now open Win 10 Mail. Create account using "Other account POP/ IMAP"

No need to select Advanced. Win 10 enters correct Port #s etc.

Enter your Info using your AOL Address and Password. Let Win 10 create account.

After a few seconds you will get a warning Symbol for the Account. Right Click and select "Fix Account"

HERE IS WHERE YOU ENTER THE CODE YOU COPIED FROM THE STEPS ABOVE IN THE PASSWORD BOX.

Mail should now start working. Tried this on 3 Win 10 OCs and all worked.

 

Syncing AOL email acct

Just upgraded to Windows 10. Initially my AOL email acct synced and I could access via the Mail Tile. However, it is no longer working. I deleted the acct and started over, but it is not working. Any assistance or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thank you
