Internet Explorer is finally closing. Internet Explorer will be shut down from June 15. The company had announced this only last year. It used to be a modern browser at one time, but later browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox replaced it.
Many people have used Internet Explorer. Because of this, people are giving different reactions on Twitter after its closure. Many jokes have been made about Internet Explorer in the past as well. These jokes were made when it was slow.
Internet Explorer Is Shutting Down
But, when most users started using the Internet, they used this browser only because there were not many options available then. Now Internet Explorer or IE is being retired for many versions of Windows 10 from tomorrow.
Microsoft announced last year that the new Edge browser would replace Internet Explorer. It has a compatibility mode that allows access to websites or apps that require the core functionality of Internet Explorer to run.

The company said that Microsoft Edge is not only faster but will give a more secure and modern browsing experience. Internet Explorer mode has also been shown in it. This allows legacy Internet Explorer-based websites and apps to be accessed directly from Microsoft Edge.
