Explorer will remain a working browser, but won’t be protected as new threats emerge.
Providing Explorer as its default browser meant a large proportion of Windows’s global user base would not experience an alternative.

It seems Microsoft got so comfortable with its monopoly that it let the quality of its product slide just as other competitors were entering the battleEven just considering its cosmetic interface , Explorer could not give users the authentic experience of modern websites.
These concerns have resulted in the United States Department for Homeland Security repeatedly advising internet users against using Explorer. Being open source means the software is publicly available, and anyone can inspect the source code that runs behind it. Individuals can even contribute to the source code, thereby enhancing the software’s productivity, reliability, and security. This was never an option with Explorer.
