Microsoft has ended support for Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) on June 15, 2022. In alignment with this move, Compliance Systems no longer supports the IE11 browser including Microsoft’s compatibility for Internet Explorer within the Edge browser (“Internet Explorer Mode”) for Simplicity Configuration and Simplicity Runtime as of March 31, 2022. We anticipate that this change may result in better performance of our applications as the removal of IE11-specific code will make those applications smaller with faster load times. Simplicity Mobile was developed to exclude support of IE11 and as a result, no changes in performance should be anticipated for that component.The worldwide usage of IE11 has been steadily declining for years and is currently at 0.73% according to StatCounter and 1.70% according to NetMarketShare. We do not anticipate that our discontinuation of IE11 support will negatively impact our clients or partners.You are receiving this message because our records show your inst
