java woint download in microsoft edge

Hi Russell,

Microsoft Edge has deprecated support for third-party plugins to reduce the security risks that they bring to your computer, so you won't be able to download or install them. However, if you need to access websites that need these plugins, you can open the
webpage using Internet Explorer 11, which still supports plugins. To do this, we suggest following these steps:

• Click the three dots on the upper right corner of Microsoft Edge.
• Choose Open with Internet Explorer.

Let us know if you have any other concerns with Microsoft Edge.
