The basics, update browser; I've been receiving msgs

[appalachiablue]

that the web browser I have will be out of date soon-- it's Internet Explorer w Outlook Email.

How can I add the update for Explorer?

I tried Edge once but it didn't work out so well; tech support added Chrome once, but it's not still around.

Thanks much.

1. There are other browsers.

What do you mean Chrome is 'not still around?'

There's Opera and Firefox.

3. Meaning I don't ever see an icon for Chrome on my

home page or elsewhere.

I need a basic program, M. Internet Explorer again if possible.

2. Well, that's the problem ;)

I am an avid Firefox user and have been for years. It's rock stable and full featured. It blocks ads and has marvelous plug-ins. You can change the theme. It is very focused on security. You can sync any devices you have that you use it on, etc.

I know, it wasn't an answer to your question.

10. I've heard of Firefox & will keep it in mind. All set now, tx.

5. Thanks G., this looks right, the basics as said.

6. Any IE is going to be out of date as of 1/1/2020, because IE is dead.

Edge is the replacement if you want a Microsoft browser that's still supported.

I'd recommend Firefox as others have above.

8. Got it, everything is straight now, tx.

7. Put Edge on (or install is what I mean), the Edge will work too while you also have the Internet

Explorer app too, on your system (unless you need the space). I just put Edge on, along w/ leaving my old Internet Explorer (version 11) on still. Both work fine. Good luck.

9. Edge is what we just did, thanks!

[SWBTATTReg]

11. Good! I think you'll like some features of Edge (I found a few of the features pretty neat, but...

I'm still learning about Edge as I go along)...

Take care and be safe!

12. I've been On Edge ever since tRump was nominated.....

...but that's another matter. Not too fond of the browser, tho.... YMMV.
