RIP Internet Explorer — the web browser that started it all

 Microsoft wants Edge to be your browser of choice for Windows 10, and is finally sunsetting Internet Explorer.


Microsoft is finally putting the nail in the coffin of its Internet Explorer browser. As of June 15, 2022, the Internet Explorer 11 desktop app will be retired and go out of support for many versions of Windows 10, according to a Wednesday Windows 10 blog post

"The future of Internet Explorer on Windows 10 is in Microsoft Edge," the post said, referring to the company's newer browser, released in 2015. "Not only is Microsoft Edge a faster, more secure and more modern browsing experience than Internet Explorer, but it is also able to address a key concern: compatibility for older, legacy websites and applications."
