what is the latest version of microsoft internet explorer
Internet Explorer On March 17, 2015, Microsoft announced that Microsoft Edge would replace Internet Explorer as the default browser on its Windows 10 devices. This effectively makes Internet Explorer 11 the last release. Internet Explorer, however, remains on Windows 10 primarily for enterprise purposes.[10] Starting January 12, 2016, only Internet Explorer 11 is supported.[11][12] Support varies based on the operating system's technical capabilities and its support lifecycle.[13]
Windows 8 On February 29, 2012, Microsoft released Windows 8 Consumer Preview, the beta version of Windows 8, build 8250. Alongside other changes, the build removed the Start button from the taskbar for the first time since its debut on Windows 95; according to Windows manager Chaitanya Sareen, the Start button was removed to reflect their view that on Windows 8, the desktop was an "app" itself, and not the primary interface of the operating system.[31][32] Windows president Steven Sinofsky said more than 100,000 changes had been made since the developer version went public.[32] The day after its release, Windows 8 Consumer Preview had been downloaded over one million times.[33] Like the Developer Preview, the Consumer Preview expired on January 15, 2013.
