Microsoft details how the IE retirement is taking place
Microsoft has stopped rolling out new updates for Internet Explorer, and now that the browser is history, the company is preparing for the next step in its browser push. The software giant will soon start an automatic migration of the existing Internet Explorer users to Microsoft Edge. A prompt will be displayed on the affected devices to tell users that “the future of Internet Explorer is in Microsoft Edge.”
All browsing data, including favorites, passwords, and history, will be moved automatically to Microsoft Edge as part of this migration.
“Over the next few months, opening Internet Explorer will progressively redirect users to our new modern browser, Microsoft Edge with IE mode.
