Cannot display applet page with Amazon Corretto, IcedTea-Web on Windows

[Jiri Vanek]

And you never will. ITW's plugin was always NPAPI, which was never done in Explorer and so it is not
in edge - they have theiurs activex. To support that, native plugin would be necessary to rewrite
from scratch.
Another issue is, that npapi plugin was never ever build or release for windows.  So although it
should be possible to build it, it is unlikely it will work good enough for production (== work at all?)
In addition npapi si already deprecated or even disabled in 99% of browsers. So do nto waste your
time (or anybody else) and move to 21st century. If you really need yours applets, move them to jnlp
protocol (it supports applets). If your appelts requires javasctript and browser, you are doomed,
and there is no place for you in future. Sorry (but it is unlikely,I had already seen hundred of
appelts move to jnlp flawlessly)

Please, where have you come to conclusion ITW on win supports applets? I will need to fix that doc.
