Microsoft are retiring Internet Explorer on Windows 10At long chuffing last
At long chuffing last
It’s a big week for 90s Windows nostalgia. Not only arethe band from the Windows 95 CD-ROM reforming for the Summer Game Fest, Microsoft are finally binning the browser you loved to hate. They announced this week that they’re retiring Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10 next June, instead pushing towards people to their newer and better browser, Edge. IE has effectively been dead for years but it’s still good to see it go.
Microsoftannouncedthis week that “the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will be retired and go out of support on June 15, 2022, for certain versions of Windows 10.” Some niche business setups will keep it going but broadly yep, get in the bin.
If you still use IE, Microsoft suggest you switch over to their new browser, Edge. I hear that’s actually quite good these days? It’s basically the guts of Chrome but without the Google. But I think I’m too invested in all Chrome’s Android tie-in behaviours to swap.
