Microsoft has confirmed that, contrary to recent reports, it does not plan to do away with two important features in Windows 10, the Internet Explorer browser, and the Patch Tuesday cycle of system updates.
Or Update Tuesday, as some now like to call it.
Word around the watercooler has been that the Redmond based technology giant was planning some big changes with the release of Windows 10, starting with the retirement of IE and the discontinuation of the monthly rollout of security fixes.
Goes without saying that a lot of people were happy with this news — as both features have been criticized in the past.
But while Microsoft is rethinking its strategy for both these products and services, neither of them will get the axe in Windows 10, when the new operating system launches in the next few months.
At least, not in the immediate future.
Internet Explore and Patch Tuesday are set to live for a little bit longer, though the new OS is expected to be the final frontier for both.
Microsoft Edge, a completely new browser is set to replace IE, and customers will continue to receive security updates for Windows 10 and other Microsoft software on the second Tuesday of each month, just like they do so now on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
