Google will stop supporting its services in Internet Explorer from March 2021

Despite the fact that Internet Explorer has ceased to be developed by Microsoft since 2015, and its place in Windows has been replaced by the Edge browser (now on the Chromium engine), it is still used today. Google is putting its end to its history by disabling Internet Explorer support in its services in 2021.

We are talking about the work package Workspace, which includes “Google Docs”, “Google Sheets”, “Google Slides”, “Gmail”, as well as cloud storage “Google Drive” and other popular applications. The company will end support on March 15, 2021. After this date, Google does not guarantee the stable or uninterrupted operation of its web services in Internet Explorer. To avoid problems, it is recommended that users switch to supported browser versions until then.

Microsoft itself announced on August 17, 2020, the end date for Internet Explorer support – August 17, 2021, and the old version of the Edge browser – March 9, 2021. The first version of Internet Explorer was released in 1995 and was included in the standard Windows 95 software package. According to the Yandex. Radar statistical service, Internet Explorer accounts for 0.63% of Internet visits in Russia, and Edge – 1.2%. Google Chrome is the leader with 39.18% of visits.
