May the Force of backward compatibility be with you: IE 2.0 was launched on Windows 10

May the Force of backward compatibility be with you: IE 2.0 was launched on Windows 10

On Reddit a new feature has emerged information that enthusiasts managed to run Internet Explorer 2.0 on Windows 10, a browser released nearly a quarter of a century ago. This is quite surprising, given how many years have passed since its launch.

It is reported that the Polish version of IE 2.0 was installed for this purpose. Windows 10 was used as the test operating system. The browser is said to have worked without any additional tweaks, although it refused to load websites since the web browser itself is no longer supported.

It's important to note that backward compatibility is a key feature of both old and new versions of Windows. This is especially significant in the context of the upcoming end of support for Windows 7. In Redmond, they claim that 99% of applications developed for Windows 7 run flawlessly on 'ten'. And it seems to be true.
