Microsoft has announced that its long-running browser, Internet Explorer, will be retired after more than 25 years. Thanks to the availability of better options, consumers haven’t used the obsolete web browser in years. Microsoft’s support for Internet Explorer will end on June 15, 2022. “Internet Explorer 11 will be discontinued for some versions of Windows 10, and support will end on June 15, 2022.” Sean Lyndersay, a Microsoft Edge program manager, commented on the decision.

Internet Explorer, which was first launched in 1995, has been considered outdated in today’s consumer market with just a 3.8 percent share of the desktop browser market. Chrome is the most widely used browser, with about 70% of all users using it. Microsoft hinted at the browser’s death last year when it announced that Microsoft 365 office software would no longer run on it as of August 2021. According to Microsoft, users who still want to use Internet Explorer can use the Internet Explorer (IE) model in Edge. Despite Microsoft’s attempts to market its Edge browser to users, Windows 10 only includes Internet Explorer 11. Many older business software/websites are only compatible with Internet Explorer, which may be one of the determining factors.

Microsoft deprecated Internet Explorer 11 support for the Microsoft Teams web app last year. Microsoft intends to ban Internet Explorer from accessing Microsoft 365 services later this year. Microsoft launched IE mode for Edge a few years ago, enabling businesses to use the new Chromium-based browser for older legacy websites. Many businesses do use older ActiveX controls and legacy websites, which Internet Explorer in Edge Browser mode can handle. Edge’s Internet Explorer mode is planned to last until at least 2029. Microsoft Edge was launched in 2015, bringing the Internet Explorer brand to a close. Microsoft has kept Internet Explorer alive due to its compatibility with a variety of businesses. With Microsoft Edge now supporting IE mode and the company promising to phase out the Internet Explorer browser, we might be witnessing the end of an era quite soon.
