Internet Explorer is a memorable web browser. When it first came out in 1995, it was like any other web browser like Opera and Netscape Navigator in the sense that it was software that you had to buy. Though Internet Explorer also came bundled with Microsoft Plus. Because you had to pay for the other web browsers, Microsoft decided to bundle Internet Explorer with Windows 98 and later versions of Windows so that users could have a free web browser after buying their Windows copy or a new computer preinstalled with Windows. This was how Internet Explorer dominated the web browser market share, though it was controversial to the point where Microsoft got sued into the case United States v. Microsoft Corp. But regardless, Internet Explorer was the industry standard and the most used web browser. In the mid 2000s, Microsoft would only release their next IE version after 5 years after IE 6 and by this point, IE 6 became vulnerable to viruses and other malware, and Mozilla Firefox started to compete with IE. In late 2008, Google Chrome joined the browser wars and in the 2010s, Internet Explorer became the web browser used only to download other web browsers (well, for the most part), and soon, Google Chrome started to dominate the browser market share. Internet Explorer was discontinued in 2015 in favor of Microsoft Edge, but was supported until recently.
This got me to learn how to use the Internet as a kid and play online games during the windows xp days, good old times. It would be better than edge, chrome and firefox but rip, it was a pleasure knowing it. Without it, how would I explore the internet and enjoy the experience ?
Q: "Where's Internet Explorer 4 and Internet Explorer 9?" The answer is IE 4 wasn't added because it was almost identical to IE3, and IE9 wasn't bundled with any specific version of Windows even though it was released during Windows 8 development, plus its identical to IE10 anyway
You should add IE9. Yeah it didn't featured with any Windows but it was a massive update back in day. It changed the whole GUI of IE series, starts the HTML5 era on Web technologies and it still has aero design, not metro style that featured with IE10, it looks more compilatable with Windows 7.
Or use it on Windows 11! Here's how: 1. Press Win+R 2. Paste this in: powershell (New-Object -COMObject InternetExplorer.Application).Visible=$true 3. Press "OK", And you're done!
Internet Explorer 7 was the first version I've used when I used a computer for the first time at age 4. My parents had Windows Vista and the school computers had windows xp.
This is a funny/sad heartbreaker for me as this was the only web browser I knew of in elementary school around 2007 and 2008. When RUclips was in its prime and glory days. Always watching MLG Halo 2 & 3 montages on this slow garbage brings back the best of memories. But let me tell you, using Windows XP as that was the only thing my household had when I was an only child, combine this OS and XP together meant some of the most infuriating years of using IE. Constant crashing, a lot of reboots, but damn did I have good moments too.
R.I.P Internet Explorer 1995 - 2022 We shouldn't be able to go to the websites without you before its 2015. (So we downloaded other browsers from you, even i installed firefox for Windows 8 Release Preview) We never forget you. Goodbye :(
uhhh, that bad browser in these days was the best I personally love it with its interface and the icon when i was using 7 it was so awesome, i was loving it more than google
Hey NobelTech, I really love this video! May i use a few seconds of it in a story where I mention Internet Explorer and Netscape's Navigator? I'm happy to credit you on-screen and link to your video in my description. Thank you, Cindy
Internet Explorer 1-5 was mainly monochrome, Internet Explorer 7 brought tabbed browsing, Internet explorer 9 featured a redesign, and internet explorer 11 was the final version.
my mom and me used internet explorer as kids, AND WE WERE OBSESSED WITH IT! this amazing browser has so many memories and special updates and moments. I loved its updates throughout the years! It was so fun and cool to use and it was my everything because i was obsessed with the internet as a kid lol. When i found out it was ending, ngl i was actually crying a little because i did not want it to end but now that microsoft edge is out, this is what were with rn. i hope internet explorer returns and will continue to be in use forever. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED INTERNET EXPLORER!!! WE LOVE YOUUU!!!!! (1995-2022) 😭😭❤❤
I remember back then, when IE was super laggy and keeps crashing. My childhood of opening the IE and then the "IE is not responding" text appears such good old times.
That would be nice. Modern Edge is now just Chrome with a Microsoft skin, but older Edge was somewhat more unique, though I can understand why they gave up and switched.
Even though Internet explorer was slow and many people switched to Google Chrome /Firefox this browser shall not be forgotten bc i used it as a kid to play coolmathgames in the computer lab.
RIP IE,people didn't needed to hate it, even tho they only used it for downloading Chrome and other browsers, it will still be in my memories.... In memorial, Internet explorer...
Or use it on Windows 11! Here's how: 1. Press Win+R 2. Paste this in: powershell (New-Object -COMObject InternetExplorer.Application).Visible=$true 3. Press "OK", And you're done!
I never understood why Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer weren't merged. I sensed that they were heading in that direction around 2000, but then they moved away from that - and then Chrome and Firefox took all of IE's market share.
my fav version 6, though people thought it just only useful for download Chrome. But when Chrome doesn't exist, ie is the best web browser. Thanks for your appearance to let us to the Internet, hello and goodbye 👋
used OSs: IE 1: Windows 95 IE 2: Windows NT 4.0 IE 3: Windows NT 4.0 (?) IE 5: Windows 98 IE 6: Windows XP IE 7: Windows Vista SP1 IE 8: Windows 7 SP1 IE 10: Windows 8 RTM IE 11: Windows 10 RTM
When I read that windows 11 no longer has IE I wondered if i can get IE on Win11 without any other browsers or modifiied Windows, I got iE working in Win11!! I have an Video about it but it's in german.. BUT I GOT IE IN WINDOWS 11!!!!! I thougt it was removed, and i searched it in the search menu but it didn't show up.. But i got it working at least?? 🙂(nice vid btw.)
Because Edge was their flagship browser since Windows 10 launched. Why would they use Windows 10 as the basis for Internet Exploerer support when Windows 10 never really promoted IE to begin with?
Or use it on Windows 11! Here's how: 1. Press Win+R 2. Paste this in: powershell (New-Object -COMObject InternetExplorer.Application).Visible=$true 3. Press "OK", And you're done!
What do you all personally remember about Internet Explorer?
I remember using it literally twenty minutes ago on my windows 11 laptop! (I actually can!)
I remember using it... right now!
When i was kid if there is no internet. I try IE and IE does not work to.
Downloading game toolbars and making my old acer aspire one very slow
an easter egg, if you open about:firefox on internet explorer 5, it will get you a blue screen on your internet explorer, not on actual computer
Even though it's very slow and many people used it to download Chrome, it shall not be forgotten. R.I.P. Internet Explorer.
Bubonic plague won't be forgotten either
Actually edge has ie mode so it’s not dead

IE 6 was a crap, with a lot of volnuralibities
Nostalgia for old web

@ agree
@ Windows 98 + Winamp ve Ceza :D
Internet Explorer 9 had Aero style scrollbars, and IE 10 had Metro style scrollbars.
You sould added IE 11 metro Interface on Windows 8.1

@@teknixstuff Wow so Microsoft didn't actually remove IE
@@annettemaldonado3373 they cant, IE is integral to Windows and it may take some effort to remove the os depedency on IE

Rip Internet Explorer. We will never forget you. (1995-2022)
I remember using IE back in 2008. And I remember the download window.
I used IE 7.

First IE and the first browser i used is IE 7. Been using it until Edge came out. My best trusted browser since XP.
Windows XP came with Internet Explorer 6 and it can be upgraded to Internet explorer 8 !
Where's Internet Explorer 4.0? That also was a past release back in 1997.
Internet Explorer 9 is also missing from this video.
@@ElectricoGamez Oops, I forgot about that. Thanks for reminding.
Internet Explorer 1-5 was mainly monochrome, Internet Explorer 7 brought tabbed browsing, Internet explorer 9 featured a redesign, and internet explorer 11 was the final version.
i love the fact you used them on their main oses!
This video gives me a lot of that nostalgia
The song perfectly fits the video

Nice bgm!
I used this so much when I was growing up. It’s sad it had to end
Internet Explorer 6 was the one I remember. Nostalgic. Miss you Internet Explorer, that’s now Edge.
I hope I can still use it after today! I definitively made a backup!
you can still use IE but it won't get security updates anymore
why would u use it tho
I have it on a windows 7
I didn't know that it's shutting down well I've had good memories with Internet Explorer.
great job
RIP My first browser I used before Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Opera GX
Press F to Pay Respect
On windows 7 I used to have fun with error messages because I like the sounds it makes and the same thing with vista
I remember back then, when IE was super laggy and keeps crashing. My childhood of opening the IE and then the "IE is not responding" text appears such good old times.
I used Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP back in 2012 when I was a kid. So Nostalgic
Internet Explorer 1, 2, 3, 4 et 5 sont sur quels OS ? Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows 2000 ou Windows ME ?
This is a big part of childhood, messing around with internet explorer!
Thank you so much
Are you planning to make video with history of Microsoft Edge in future?
That would be nice. Modern Edge is now just Chrome with a Microsoft skin, but older Edge was somewhat more unique, though I can understand why they gave up and switched.
I’ve never discovered you when I was younger, but I will miss your since I was a fan of you…
- Me, remembering Internet Explorer (1995-2022)
It was a good browser rest in peace internet Explorer 1995-2022 😢😭🕊️ 1:13 WE WILL MISS YOU 😢 :(
Why ie 4 and ie 9 not found ? Besides ie 11 is coming win 8.1
Can we have the links to old internet explorer?
I still have ie on my up to date windows 10 pc... They were going to remove it... right?
It would be redirected to Edge in future
This browser died on my birthday
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday
Even though Internet explorer was slow and many people switched to Google Chrome /Firefox this browser shall not be forgotten bc i used it as a kid to play coolmathgames in the computer lab.
I loved IE 6 it was honestly my favourite version
June 15 2022.... were gonna miss you Internet Explorler :(
Could you remake this video and adding the Internet Explorer 4 please?
why there is no internet explorer 4 and 9
what about IE 9?
can you make IE evolution but for Macintosh?
I will really be missing its good old days
I remembered 6, 7 and 8 since those three were better days.
Also, you skipped 4 and 9
I used internet explorer 6 as a little 2000's kid
RIP IE,people didn't needed to hate it, even tho they only used it for downloading Chrome and other browsers, it will still be in my memories....
In memorial, Internet explorer...
IE is still usable on Versions Windows 8.1 and older
When software reached the end of support, you just stop receiving updates or support.
RIP internet explorer (16 August 1995-15 June 2022),stay in peace

I love you so much internet explorer rest in peace 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😢
We miss you Internet explorer 11 . I had uninstall it
IE 7-9 are my favourites (user interface)
Internet Explorer ended support in the same year Olivia Rodrigo wore gloves at the Met Gala in 2022, but a month after.
I saw this a few days before it happened when Uninstall Edge Browser
Ah yes, the good old days of using "Internet Exploader" before it was retired.
i remember using IE 7 for 5 minutes back in 2008 on Windows XP to Download Firefox.
Why did you skip 4 and 9?
Off topic, but 4 and 9 are two of my favorite Final Fantasy games, hehe
my fav version 6, though people thought it just only useful for download Chrome. But when Chrome doesn't exist, ie is the best web browser. Thanks for your appearance to let us to the Internet, hello and goodbye 👋

IE 10: Windows 8 RTM
IE 11: Windows 10 RTM

308 is the build number. 4.4 is the version number.
@Марк Аддерли [MK32] it's not a mistake.
6 was the first one I've ever used
6 to 8 are nostslgic - but I remember especially with 6 that I would take naps waiting for it to load! 😂
When I'm using on XBOX 360, doesn't work connecting, Has out of support on XBOX 360, and right now Internet Explorer has ended.
You forgot versions 4, 5.5, 9 and 12 (Project Spartan)
Project Spartan was the name of Microsoft Edge during development. He have now uploaded a separate video on Microsoft Edge evolution.

Even tho it was slow as shit, it was awesome and was of the many remnants of Windows 8 UI left. I’m sad to see it go.
Why doesn't Microsoft support Internet Explorer until 2025?(2025 is the year Windows 10 stops supporting)

Dont worry windows 8.1 ie is still work
R.I.P IE, born with Windows 95 and disappears in a second on 15 June 2022
I'm old enough to remember when Internet Explorer was the "cool browser" and only plebs used anything else. Oh how times have changed.
what about 4
rip now we won't be able to download chrome with ie :(
you should do a windows 11 video as 21996 was leaked 1 year ago from today

Das ist schade das der Explorer nicht mehr unterstützt wird genau so das windows 7 nicht mehr unterstützt wird😥
I know it's not supported anymore, but somehow it still works on my computer.
Rest in peace.
