Microsoft Silverlight was a highly capable development platform. However, it is no longer supported and is effectively defunct.
At the time of its release, Silverlight was a popular choice for developers who wanted to create rich web applications, especially for media streaming and interactive user interfaces. But since HTML5 has become more popular and can support multimedia and interaction, over time, Silverlight has been used less and less.
Some older websites and web apps may still need Silverlight to work, but this is becoming less and less common. While likely uncommon, if you find you need to use Silverlight for a specific website or application, you can get around the issue by using an older version of a web browser that still supports Silverlight, or by running the website or application on a virtual machine that runs an older operating system and browser version.
Therefore, it is generally recommended that users uninstall Silverlight from their systems to avoid potential security risks. If you have a legacy application that relies on Silverlight, it may be worth exploring alternative solutions that are more up-to-date and better supported.allowed developers to create interactive and multimedia-rich applications that could run on various platforms.
Limited Adoption: Silverlight could never gain widespread adoption among developers or users despite its many capabilities. This limited its growth potential and made it less viable as a long-term platform. Focus on Universal Windows Platform: Microsoft has shifted its focus to the Universal Windows Platform , which allows developers to create applications that can run on multiple devices, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones. UWP offers a more modern and flexible platform than Silverlight, which has become outdated.
