Farewell, IE. Hello, Edge!
Have a checked-out Windows laptop (or a personal Windows device)? As of June 2022, Internet Explorer (IE) 11 is out of support, and on February 14, 2023, Microsoft will release a patch that will officially make the switch to Edge. On University-managed devices (such as your checked-out laptop) this change will officially replace IE with Edge anywhere IE is currently used. Be sure and check that your personal devices are also updated.
