Hi,
Anyone know if the feature "Open with Explorer" will be available on the new EDGE browser once Internet Explorer is discontonued?
Thanks.

Open with Explorer uses ActiveX. This will not work on Edge or other modern browsers.
You will need to consider alternatives:
- use OneDrive for Business
- use Apps that mimic "Open with Explorer" in a browser
- use client-side apps that extend File Explorer and map SharePoint
- start working 100% in browser

@Paul de Jong Edge has an addon called "IE based tab" that does this quite handily.

Some alternatives you may want to look into are:
Zee Drive

Client-side software to map SharePoint as network drive
