Can i uninstall aol desktop and still access my mail

The nostalgia of AOL!

Yes, you can uninstall AOL Desktop and still access your AOL email account. Here's how:

  1. Uninstall AOL Desktop: Go to Control Panel > Programs and Features (in Windows) or Applications > Utilities > Uninstall (in macOS). Find AOL Desktop in the list and click Uninstall. Follow the prompts to complete the uninstallation process.
  2. Access your AOL email account: You can still access your AOL email account using a web browser. Go to www.aol.com and sign in with your AOL email address and password. You can also use the AOL Mail app on your mobile device (if you have one).
  3. Alternative email clients: If you want to access your AOL email account using a different email client, you can set up your account in a third-party email client like Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or Apple Mail. You'll need to enter your AOL email address and password, and the client will connect to the AOL servers to retrieve your emails.

Note that uninstalling AOL Desktop will not affect your AOL email account or its settings. Your account will remain active, and you can continue to access your emails using the methods mentioned above.

If you're experiencing issues with your AOL email account or need help setting up a third-party email client, you can contact AOL's customer support for assistance.
