![]() ![]() In Firefox, long ago there was an extension that let you combine the address bar and tab bar into one, as in IE, but in modern Firefox versions this seems not possible (I’d like to know if someone could tell a way to still do this, with some complex user CSS code perhaps?)Īnyway, there is one other thing you can easily do in Firefox to make your empty tab bar space a bit more useful: by putting your most-visited bookmarks in there. ![]() If (like me) you rarely have more than three tabs open at the same time, this near-empty tab bar remains a waste of screen space. Yes, I haven’t used IE in years but on this single point I agree with you. ![]() That’s what malware does too – it hijacks you and it doesn’t go away until you kill its processes and then run an antivirus scan. I swear Edge and Windows 10 altogether is starting to act like a malware – as soon as you log in for the first time on a fresh Windows 10 install, Edge starts bombarding you from the start – it opens some window in the bottom right, it runs from start, it literally hijacks you from the start and if you want to ignore it, you have to kill its many processes from Task Manager. If cookie dialogs are jumping at me right from the New Tab page… what comes after that? I’m too scared to find out. What I recently started hating the most about Edge is that even the New Tab page has a cookie dialog box and it greys out everything else. I don’t know what will I do after they remove it from the system, but I won’t be using their Edge, because it’s crap, unless they somehow integrate it inside Windows 10 so that I can’t uninstall it. Now You: do you still use Internet Explorer?Ĭurrently I have Chromium Edge uninstalled and I use my browser of choice + IE when I want to see how a website works without all my content blocking, because it’s more work turning them off than opening IE. Microsoft published a FAQ on its Tech Community website that answers frequent questions and contains lots of links to support articles and information. Microsoft won't make any exceptions to the Jdeadline. A special email adddress,, is available, to report compatibility issues when opening sites in IE Mode that are designed for Internet Explorer. ![]() Microsoft states that apps that are developed for IE should work in IE Mode in Microsoft Edge. Better browser security with new features and better protections built-into the browser.Īdministrators may set up IE Mode in Microsoft Edge using this official guide to allow users to open sites using Internet Explorer.Streamlined productivity as users and organizations can focus on a single browser instead of having to juggle between two browsers.Microsoft Edge offers improved web compatibility, as it is based on Chromium, the same core that Google Chrome and other browsers such as Vivaldi, Brave or Opera are based on.The decision to retire Internet explorer was based on the following reasons, according to Microsoft: IE Mode can run legacy websites that require Internet Explorer features that modern web browsers don't support. Microsoft notes that its new browser, Microsoft Edge offers a faster, more secure and more modern browsing experience than Internet Explorer, and that it has addressed one of the major concerns of users and organizations with Internet Explorer mode in the browser. Why is Microsoft retiring Internet Explorer? IE Mode will be supported at least through 2029 according to Microsoft, and Microsoft will give a one year in advanced warning before deprecating Internet Explorer Mode. Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer platform will remain supported. Windows 10 IoT Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) (all versions).Windows 7 with Extended Security Updates.The following versions and editions of Windows are not affected by the decision: IE Mode will bridge the gap between using the Edge web browser and accessing apps and sites that require Internet Explorer-specific technologies. Internet Explorer 11 won't be removed from devices because its engine is required for IE Mode to function. Microsoft plans to disable Internet Explorer 11 on all unsupported devices and redirect requests to open Internet Explorer to the company's Chromium-based Microsoft Edge web browser.
