This is a reminder that users will no longer be able to access eRA modules via the Internet Explorer (IE) browser effective July 19, 2021.

As originally announced by Microsoft, support of Internet Explorer 11 (IE) will be discontinued for Microsoft 365 applications and services by August 17, 2021. As a result, eRA will phase out the use of IE for eRA all modules by July 19, 2021 to safeguard against security and interoperability concerns.

We encourage users to switch to other supported browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari (and Microsoft Edge starting on July 20), when using eRA systems (see eRA’s Browser Compatibility statement).

Also review the Tips and Tricks for Fixing Browser Configuration Issues When Using eRA Modules page for guidance on steps you can take to resolve the most common browser issues.
