Internet Explorer is the default web browser for Windows computers and tablets using Windows 8. However, Internet Explorer 11 will be the last version of IE. Starting with Windows 10 , the default web browser is Microsoft Edge. IE 11 has two versions for Windows 8.
We'll talk about both in this tutorial. You'll then be able to see the version number you're using. June 14, — 12 months and change away — won't be the end of the browser by any means. That's not to say the separate IE11 application will survive that long. Even IE11 running on Windows 7 will be supported longer than next June. What's most important to enterprises is that the June support deadline can be sidestepped by using Edge and its IE mode; that last calls up designated sites using IE's Trident rather than Edge's now-native Chromium.
Businesses still wedded to aged internal sites and too-expensive-to-rewrite apps are to be pushed toward Edge and its baked-in IE mode. By putting a nail in IE11's coffin, Microsoft means to provide its Edge browser with, well, an edge.
At least since Chrome's appearance in , and to some degree even before that because of Mozilla's Firefox, Microsoft has seen its browser dominance — once overwhelming — deteriorate as customers, first consumers and then later, enterprises, defect to rivals because IE was mired in its backward compatibility and simply could not compete.
IE was old, relied on old technologies and was, at best, a kludge that creaked and groaned whenever it faced the web as the latter changed into a media-rich ocean of content. Edge, launched in mid as part of Windows 10, was Microsoft's attempt to stem the bleeding of browser share. That didn't work. Even with Edge and IE combined, Microsoft's share kept dropping.
So Microsoft abandoned its own rendering and JavaScript engines and swapped in Google's instead, relying on Chromium's open-source nature, like other browsers before it, to become a clone of Chrome. Since then, Edge has edged up in share; as of April, it accounted for nearly an eighth of all browser activity. It's virtually certain that much of that growth has come from Microsoft's best customers, the businesses, small and gigantic, that run on Windows.
Some of those companies still required IE so that employees and partners could access old, very old in some cases, intranet sites and apps. IE mode made the back-and-forth between Edge and IE renderings, if not automatic at least configurable. That was an advantage over Chrome when Google's browser was adopted by IT administrators.
