Remove Internet Explorer from Windows 10. You do not need it.

Internet Explorer is still in millions of computers and no one cares. Not even Microsoft. Is it time to remove it?

Somewhere back there, deep in your programs, there is also Internet Explorer. Do you remember him? And while even Microsoft has forgotten about it and is promoting the Edge (at least trying) by equipping it with Chromium, Internet Explorer, even if you do not use it, is still on your system, as if ghost of the last decade.

Does nothing. It sits quietly in a corner and unlike the Edge, there are no Windows 10-based features, so you can remove it freeing up space.

How to remove Internet Explorer
Internet Explorer can be removed from Control Panel. Open Control Panel and click Programs and Features. On the left side of the window, click Enable or Disable Windows Features.

This will open a list of Windows features that are installed on your system. Scroll down and you will find Internet Explorer 11. Clear the selection and click OK.

You will receive one στην οθόνη, η οποία σας ενημερώνει ότι η κατάργηση του Internet Explorer 11 μπορεί να επηρεάσει άλλες δυνατότητες και προγράμματα των Windows και θα σας ζητήσει να επιβεβαιώσετε ότι θέλετε να το καταργήσετε. Κάντε κλικ στο κουμπί “Ναι” και θα καταργηθεί η .

It will take some time to uninstall and once it does, you will need to restart your system. Once your system is restarted, Internet Explorer will truly become history.

If you ever need to restore it for any reason, which is unlikely, you can. The process is simple. Open Control Panel and go to Programs and Features. Click on the same option “Turn Windows features on or off” and from the list of options check the box next to Internet Explorer and click OK. Windows 10 will install the browsing again, you will need to restart your system for the change to take effect.

Internet Explorer 11 is not even the default browser in Windows 10 when you install it. He is there because he was always there !!!. It's a part of the old windows though Windows 10 has more users than Windows 7 now now. Many websites are still working properly in this browser and that is why it is still there. No feature that Microsoft has added to Windows 10 relies on Internet Explorer to work. Uses either Cortana or Edge.

There's also the possibility that at some point Microsoft will eventually do away with the browser itself. Dismissing a browser, especially a browser that resides in the underlying operating system for over twenty-three years, it has not been the same as with the Paint application. Many strangely they still rely on this browser. It may not be safe or sane, but there are people who still use it because it's just a matter of habit.

  1. Of course not. IE is the best browser. And slowly the space to be released. We are talking about windows machines with dozens of terabytes of storage. You say we're going for a few megabytes.
