Microsoft Withdraws Support For Internet Explorer
Microsoft has announced
that it will completely end its support for its 25-year-old browser Internet
Explorer next year.
Internet Explorer, an
internet browser developed by Microsoft, was first introduced to users on
August 16, 1995.
Internet Explorer, which
once held a large part of the browser market due to its built-in Windows, later
fell far behind in the race as browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and Opera
became popular.
Microsoft, which has
only supported the Internet Explorer 11 version since January
12, 2016, announced that they will not support this version as of August 17,
2021.
Announcing the decision in
a blog post, Microsoft stated that other 365 applications and services will
attract support for the browser next year, while Microsoft Edge, which is based
on Chromium open source software developed by Google for Chrome, will replace
Internet Explorer.
Thus, Internet Explorer,
which millions of people use to download Chrome, Firefox or Opera, will take
its place on the dusty shelves of history.
