Have you ever opened your computer after an update and thought:
“Who moved everything?”
The buttons look different.
The menus aren’t where you remember them.
Something you used every day seems to have disappeared.
And suddenly a computer you’ve used for years feels unfamiliar.
If this has happened with AOL Desktop Gold, you’re not alone.
Updates Can Change the Way Things Look
Software developers occasionally change features, settings, menus, and the appearance of applications.
Sometimes the changes are improvements.
But that doesn’t mean they are immediately comfortable.
If you’ve been using AOL for many years, you probably have a routine.
You know where to click.
You know where your inbox is.
You know how to send an email.
You know where certain settings are.
When that routine changes, even a small update can feel like a major problem.
You Don’t Have to Learn Everything Again
If you can’t find something, don’t start clicking randomly.
Instead, stop and think about what you’re trying to accomplish.
For example:
“I want to change the size of my email text.”
“I want to find an old email.”
“I want to change my mailbox settings.”
“I want to find my contacts.”
Once you know the goal, it becomes much easier to find the right setting.
AOL Desktop Gold has a number of customizable mail settings, including font size, sender display, and date style.
It’s Okay to Say, “I Don’t Understand This.”
That’s one of the most important things we want people to know.
You don’t have to pretend you understand something when you don’t.
You don’t have to feel embarrassed.
And you don’t have to spend your entire afternoon searching through menus.
