#2As the linked FAQ states:
"For supported operating systems, Internet Explorer 11 will continue receiving security updates and technical support for the lifecycle of the Windows version on which it is installed."

Safari?[0] It's especially a problem when Apple don't allow other browser engines on its devices, although governments are looking into that.[1]

Windows server, use Linux instead, it is possible to do this with samba for long time, I had this setup with samba for 50+ hosts with AD/GPO/Storage all working, this was more then 6 years ago.
