Added to current events because it was about Microsoft retiring Internet Explorer after 27 years of service.

I'm a bit confused over what "retirement" means here since microsoft hasn't updated IE since 2013.

If I recall correctly a Microsoft update will remove IE from Windows 10 completely. Previous Windows 10 iterations had both browsers installed.

It still got security updates until this year, now it is officially a discontinued product.
