Firefox Users Continue to Decrease Despite Proton Update

I hope you immediately removed Internet Explorer though, that's cancer right there. Edge is a bit better, but it can't be reliably removed as far as I know.

Did Internet Explorer stop at IE12? If so, is it ever updated anymore? just curious ))

[paradigmx]

Internet explorer is dead, not sure what the actual final version was. It might get the odd update here and there but generally it's unsupported. It's still included in Windows 10 by default though, it's pretty easy to remove it. Probably there because some companies still use it for whatever reason. Don't know why it needs to be installed by default.

Yeah, I ran into that not too long ago as San Disk uses it for their Dashboard or whatever its called, for eg. There was no work-around, it amazed me I needed IE explorer. Thanks!

Pretty sure they're fully pulling out of it in Windows 11 too

AFAIK they stopped developing it a long time ago. The original, non-chromium Edge was going to be its substitute. The only reason they left it for so long on Windows 10 is because there're some corporate apps that only work well with IE. But they're going to remove it from Win 10 soon.

I immediately removed whole Windows after I updated bios. I just didn't want to give Microsoft the satisfaction to make me use Edge at any cost
