Microsoft is retiring its once-dominant browser Internet Explorer!

Microsoft is officially retiring its old web interface. Internet Explorer has served us for 27 years, but that iconic blue E and bright yellow swoosh are going away.

After 27 years, Microsoft has retired Internet Explorer!

The company wants Internet Explorer users to migrate to its Edge browser, which is available on smartphones and Linux, in addition to Windows.

Internet Explorer still has a small group of devotees, though, in part because it remains the only way to reach certain corporate web applications. It won’t be vanishing yet, even though it’s being retired.

“Over the next few months, opening Internet Explorer will progressively redirect users to our new modern browser, Microsoft Edge with IE mode,”
