Reduced support for Internet Explorer

After the Windows Update of january 2016, Microsoft will reduce support for a number of Internet Explorer versions.

- Support for IE 7 & IE 8 will be dropped all together.

- Vista users will only receive support for IE 9.

- Win 7 & Win 8 users will only receive support for IE 11.

 

Makes perfect sense. It reduces the workload for MS. And when I want to download the latest update packages it makes searching for those updates A LOT easier. Is MS going to combine the 32 bit & 64 bit update packages into one download ? I certainly would hope so.

(Was this already reported on this forum in the past ??? For - at least - me, it was news for me. Luckily, I use IE 11)
