Hi there,
Recently it was decided to remove the rest of NPAPI support [1] which
got me thinking about the other Windows specific plugin tech -
ActiveX.
It seems ActiveX is very much no longer recommended by Microsoft and
it seems to not work by default for IE10/11 on Windows 7 and up. Any
objections to removing?
AFAICT this would just be removing embedding LO into IE.
Kind regards,
Bryan
