Microsoft has released a free Windows 10 virtual machine containing Microsoft Edge Legacy and Internet Explorer 11 that you can use for 90 days to test applications or perform other development.
Now that the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge has been released, Microsoft will eventually install it on your computer via Windows Update. As part of this installation process, Microsoft Edge Legacy will also be removed unless you block Windows Update from doing so.
For those who no longer have Edge Legacy and IE 11 or want to test from another operating system, Microsoft has released a free Windows 10 virtual machine that has these browsers installed.

When downloading the Windows 10 VM, you can choose either a VirtualBox, VMware, Vagrant, HyperV, and Parallels virtual machine depending on what software you use.
When extracted, this virtual machine is approximately 7GB and will provide a Windows 10 version 1809 install at build 17763.379. This build is from the March 12, 2019 Patch Tuesday cumulative update.
The VM will come with a preinstalled user named 'IEUser' with the password 'Passw0rd!'.
Unless you have a license for VMware, Parallels, or are running Windows 10 Professional, I suggest that you use VirtualBox to load this virtual machine as it is free and includes snapshots that allow you to restore the OS to different points in time.
When installing via VirtualBox, you will need to import the appliance and when it asks for the OVA file, point it to the file you downloaded and extracted. Just use the default settings above, with additional allocated RAM if you can spare it, and then click on the Import button.

Once imported, you can start the virtual machine and have a fully functional Windows 10 machine with Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge Legacy preloaded.
Just remember, once activated, you only have 90 days to use this VM until it expires.

I hate ME. I hardly ever use it. I prefer IE. I do use Opera, Firefox, and GC. I prefer certain browsers for different websites. For this site, I use IE. For comic strips, I use GC. To read the news, I use Opera. I have several windows, and tabs open at the same time. It does slow my computer down sometimes.

Why? You have different processes consuming resources unnecessarily, and update tasks running in the background for each one... What's the benefit of that ?

like IE, edge will was nothing but a gateway to other browser. I might use it just to download a driver. I ever found it to be any faster then other browser, and its poor plugin support at the start didn't help.
