Of course this doesn't change anything for the 70% of our users who are still on XP and Vista. At best we get IE9, at worst IE8

- thanksgiving 11y agoYou should start nudging people to use alternative browsers. I'd suggest Mozilla Firefox. You do not need administrative privileges to use Mozilla Firefox and with the extended support releases, there is no reason why anything other than legacy internal services (running on internal network) should use Internet Explorer at all. Assuming your application does not need IE specific features, what are some reasons that prevent you from nudging users this direction?

- cpeterso 11y agoFirefox still supports Windows XP Service Pack 2. Mozilla has no immediate plans to retire XP SP2 support. In fact, Mozilla is adapting the mozilla.org website's SSL/TLS support so IE users on XP can still access the Firefox download page. :) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-some-versions-windows-xp https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works...
