Microsoft has announced plans to do away with Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) in Windows 10.
In a notice, Microsoft highlighted that they are permanently disabling IE 11 on February 14, 2023 replacing it with Microsoft Edge.
Microsoft added that, “the change to use Microsoft Edge update to disable IE is intended to provide a better user experience and help organisations transition their last remaining IE11 users to Microsoft Edge.”
“Organisations that have already transitioned from IE11 to Microsoft Edge with IE mode will not be impacted when the IE11 desktop application is scheduled to be permanently disabled on February 14, 2023. Note: If you would like to remove the IE visual references such as on the taskbar or Start Menu, you will need to use the Disable IE policy before February 14, 2023.
“If your organisation still has dependencies on IE11, you must take steps now to complete your transition before February 14, 2023, or risk business disruption at scale when users lose access to IE11-dependent applications.”
Microsoft also highlighted that IE11 icons on the Start Menu and taskbar will be removed in June.
“IE11 visual references, such as the IE11 icons on the Start Menu and taskbar, will be removed by the June 2023 Windows monthly security update release (‘B’ release) scheduled for June 13, 2023. They will also be removed by the non-security preview release on certain Windows 10 versions scheduled for May 23, 2023.”
