Microsoft's improved version of their Internet Explorer browser

Internet Explorer 10 (IE10) is a version of the Internet Explorer web browser released by Microsoft in 2012, and is the default browser in Windows 8.

On 12 April 2011, Microsoft released the first 'IE10 Platform Preview', which runs only on Windows 7 and later.

On Windows 8, it is divided into two editions with different user interfaces: a Metro app that does not support plug-ins and a traditional desktop application that retains plug-in support. On 64-bit computers, the Metro edition runs in 64-bit mode by default. The desktop edition can be run in 64-bit mode by enabling Enhanced Protected Mode.

Microsoft is finally retiring Internet Explorer 11 from some Windows 10 versions and replacing it with the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge.

'Microsoft Edge has Internet Explorer mode (“IE mode”) built in, so you can access those legacy Internet Explorer-based websites and applications straight from Microsoft Edge,' said Sean Lyndersay, Microsoft Edge Partner Group Program Manager.

'With Microsoft Edge capable of assuming this responsibility and more, the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will be retired and go out of support on June 15, 2022, for certain versions of Windows 10.'

The retirement announcement impacts Internet Explorer 11 desktop apps delivered via the Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) to systems running Windows 10 client SKUs (version 20H2 and later) and Windows 10 IoT (version 20H2 and later).

Out of scope Windows releases unaffected by this announcement include:

Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge
Internet Explorer platform (MSHTML/Trident), including WebOC
Windows 8.1
Windows 7 Extended Security Updates (ESU)
Windows 10 Server SAC (all versions)
Windows 10 IoT Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) (all versions)
Windows 10 Server LTSC (all versions)
Windows 10 client LTSC (all versions)
In-market Windows 10 LTSC and Windows Server

After being retired on June 15, 2022, the Internet Explorer desktop application will be out of support and disabled, automatically redirecting users to Microsoft Edge when launched.

Internet Explorer lives on with Edge IE mode

'If you’re an organization using Internet Explorer, you may have a surprisingly large set of legacy Internet Explorer-based websites and apps, built up over many years,' Lyndersay added.

'In fact, we found that enterprises have 1,678 legacy apps on average. By moving to Microsoft Edge, you get everything described above plus you’ll be able to extend the life of your legacy websites and apps well beyond the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application retirement date using IE mode.'

Sites that only work on Internet Explorer 11 can be opened with Microsoft Edge, in IE mode. To enable it, go to edge://settings/defaultbrowser, toggle on 'Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer' and restart Microsoft Edge.
