Question

What is the main difference between Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer?

Answer 1

Hello Khushal,

My Name is Paul one of the Community Advisor and a Microsoft Consumer like you. In regards of the inquiry of the difference between MS EDGE and IE. The most Noticeable changes are.

* Microsoft Edge is considered to be a more modern browser with a cleaner look. Like its competitors Mozila and Chrome.

* Edge is designed to work with the most current web standards like HTML 5.

* It will be able to run extensions. Extensions are smaller programs that run inside browsers.

* Edge is faster to load because it uses a different rendering engine.

* It’s safer than Internet Explorer. Support for Active X plug-ins has been removed and there is better overall security to prevent attacks.

The only reason why IE is still around is because of mostly Enterprise Application's who are still using old scripts to run their website's and application's that requires a certain older Java Scripts.

if you have additional questions please let me know and I will reply back as soon as I can.

Can you advise me to how to delete Microsoft Edge from my computer?

Answer 4

Hi, just so you know  I am not a Microsoft employee. here is what I know from experience. No you shouldn't lose other browsers. I have two internet browsers on my laptop because there are some things I just can't do on firefox that I need Chrome for. If you do lose the other internet browsers there is something else wrong with your computer.
