Modern.IE features a scanning tool that will flag common compatibility issues for your website, so you can test your site on various operating systems and Internet Explorer versions with ease.

In the latest update to the service, Microsoft has added the following new improvements. These improvements were made based on feedback and to ‘update the base Windows versions.’

Modern.IE has been quite successful since launching over a year ago. Here is what Microsoft had to say once the service reached its first birthday. “Since launching modern.IE last year, developers have saved over 1 million hours testing for Internet Explorer! We launched modern.IE with the simple aim of helping web developers test their sites with IE and are thrilled to find that the site has made a real impact after just one year,”Microsoft statedin an official blog post.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
