Title: Has IBM released any info on Edge being supported with IE being deprecated?
Post by: gohabsgo on 24 Sep 2020 11:47:29 AM
Hey Gang,
Our clients make heavy use of Analysis Studio and Query Studio and with IE being deprecated by Microsoft, we are wondering what IBM's plan is for allowing Edge to support all of the studios and options?

Thanks,

Internet Explorer has always been a security flaw.  Vendor products like Cognos take advantage of these to "enhance the user experience" by more tightly integrating with the host system -- something that is considered bad in terms of browser security.  My guess is that several of these "features" are used by products like Event Studio.  It may be difficult to create a browser-agnostic version that has the same feature set.
