  1. Questions regarding change in AOL sign-in functionality and Windows Mail app


    On my laptop I've been checking my AOL e-mail via the Windows Mail app. This morning I got an e-mail from AOL that has raised some concerns about whether Windows Mail will remain synced with my AOL account in the future:


    We’ve noticed that you’re using non-AOL applications such as third-party email, calendar, or contact applications that may use a less secure sign-in method. To protect you and your data, AOL will no longer support the current sign-in functionality in your application starting on October 20, 2020. This means that you will need to take one of the steps below to continue using your AOL Mail without interruption.


    One of the options this e-mail mentions is using a third-party app password regarding two-factor authentication, but I am unsure if trying this method will result in complications I cannot remedy on my own.

    :)

    In Firefox after receiving this message if i click the bookmark for AOL it will eventually sign in, with Edge this always happens. Tried starting Firefox with addons disabled in safe mode but goes directly to page shown in Firefox image posted.

    Internet Explorer never even loads AOL. Tried googling to find out any issues with AOL but no help there.

    Not sure what else to try everything else i do on my browsers are fine plus any other e-mail accounts.
    No new software was added recently and all windows updates have been done recently.

    Any help is much appreciated !

    Seem to fix the problem so far with Firefox. Everyday i go onto my PC check my e-mails and do other stuff i use CCleaner before i shutdown to clean it. In options in CCleaner i selected Cookies under category Cookies to Keep i moved aol.com to it, the only other Cookies to Keep listed was Google.com.

    Swore in the past with CCleaner aol.com was always there under this part. Maybe after recent update to CCleaner this happened. I do still have the same issue with Edge unless i refresh the page after attempting to sign in using this browser.
    Internet Explorer still never reaches page for sign in to mail.

    Thanks for your reply !
