Internet Explorer (IE) 11 discontinuation
Microsoft officially ended support for Internet Explorer (IE) on June 15, which means it will no longer receive security updates. To ensure a secure and reliable computing environment, ICIT will disable the use of IE 11 for most campus Windows PCs on July 29.
On July 29, IE 11 icons on the start menu and taskbar will be removed. Individuals who try to launch IE will be redirected to use Microsoft Edge and will see a message indicating that launching Internet Explorer is restricted. See the Knowledge Base article Internet Explorer (IE) Retirement for more information.
We appreciate the assistance of campus departments in identifying systems requiring IE in preparation for this change. With your help, we've eliminated the need for IE in all areas, except for individuals working in Financial Services, who will retain access to IE due to necessary business functions.
