Brilio.net/en - The arrival of Windows 10 with the Microsoft Edge browser surely keeps threatening the existence of its older brother, Internet Explorer. Even, in early 2016, Microsoft claims they will retire the long-standing browser.
According to Softpedia (26/11), Microsoft has announced that in January 2016, several versions of Internet Explorer would be discontinued and pulled off support because they want to focus on the development of Microsoft Edge.
Yes, Microsoft would drop their entire support on almost all versions of Internet Explorer, except the version 11. Internet Explorer 11 is known to be present in the latest Microsoft operating systems, such as Windows 7, 8.1, and 10.
After January next year, users of Internet Explorer 11 would still receive security updates and patches.
After January 12, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or technical support for older versions of Internet Explorer, said Microsoft.
Unfortunately, it is said that Internet Explorer 11 would also not get further development or more features in the future. As a result, many said that this act is tantamount to indirectly retire all versions of Internet Explorer. Internet experts also recommend users who still use Internet Explorer to reconsider in retaining this legendary browser and switch to another browser such as Microsoft Edge.
