I haven't used IE in a very long time, except when something opens it by default. I don't like Edge, I use Firefox, and happily.
My business accounting software is QuickBooks... and I got an email from them yesterday telling me that because IE is dead, it's time to upgrade! I am still using QB15, which is fine with me, I don't plan to upgrade it... or give Intuit any more of my money. I do not use any of QB's dynamic (internet) features... I don't do payroll, I don't use it's bill pay or payment services, and I haven't even updated it for about 2 years. All I do is invoice and email invoices off my QB software.
Software is NOT my strong point... so...
Big Question: Is MS going to let IE just lay there, unsupported... or are they going to disable it or remove it from my W10 install?
For those of you familiar with QuickBooks... is this going to kill my access to QB? QB loves to sell you upgrades, and will even pull the suckhead move and disable components of older versions so you HAVE to upgrade. All new versions of QB are cloud-based, and I won't go there... so if my only choice is to upgrade, I'll have to find a different solution.
Edit to add... Firefox is my default browser, does that mean QB opens in FF? Again, software is not my strong point.
