Windchill and Windows 10

Just a general question if anyone has knowledge on this... What version of Windchill will be compatible with Windows' new web browser Edge(Spartan)? It is a completely redesigned browser that is not in any way tied to IE, so just wondering what it's all going to break.

Reason I ask, is we are looking at upgrading Windchill soon and would like to not have to upgrade again shortly down the road because of compatibility issues.

Support for   Windows 10 and next update to Internet Explorer will be with Windchill 11.0(X-26). It is expected to be released by Dec 15'/

I did some basic testing with preview edition and the browser is really fast!!

Thanks

Thanks for the info.  I don't, however, see any reference to the new Edge browser.  I would suspect there is no support, as I don't believe it supports plugins yet. But what the plans are for  this browser would be of interest.

The "Next update to Internet Explorer" is Edge. IE will not be updated after Windows 10 comes out. It is getting completely re-branded to Edge(Spartan initially).

Internet explorer 11 is still in Windows 10.
