Remember Internet Explorer<\/strong>? When our computer monitors were still square and Paint was an endless source of hours of fun, Internet Explorer was the gateway to the Internet<\/strong>. Over the years, other browsers such as Mozilla Firefox<\/strong> or Google Chrome<\/strong> began to appear and, quickly, the use of Internet Explorer plummeted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After several updates and attempts by Microsoft to re-popularize its classic browser<\/strong> (included as standard in all Windows operating systems), the company finally threw in the towel and developed what would become its current browser: Microsoft Edge, based on Chromium<\/a><\/strong>. But then what about Internet Explorer?<\/p>\n\n\n

This February, after many years with Internet Explorer on our computers, Microsoft has decided to put an end to its old browser<\/strong>. The date decided, according to the company’s blog<\/a>, is February 14<\/strong>. On that day, Microsoft will release an update for Edge<\/strong> that will completely disable Internet Explorer 11, the latest version of the classic browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time, Microsoft said that Internet Explorer 11 would be disabled through a Windows update, but, in the end, it will do so through an update for Edge itself. According to the company, this is to provide a better user experience and make the transition to Edge easier<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that’s not all. Microsoft will also remove any visual reference to Internet Explorer<\/strong> from Windows 10 with the Patch Tuesday<\/strong> update it will release in June, which means you will no longer see the browser logo in the taskbar or Start menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
