Washington, Dec 30 - Microsoft will reportedly introduce the Windows 10 with some big changes to Internet Explorer browser codenamed "Spartan" making it more like Chrome and Firefox.

According to CNET, Thomas Nigro, a Microsoft Student Partner lead and developer of the modern version of VLC said that Microsoft was building an entirely new browser.

Spartan will use Microsoft's Chakra JavaScript engine and Microsoft's Trident rendering engine (not WebKit), said sources.

Spartan is likely going to be a new lightweight browser of Microsoft.

Microsoft may launch the new browser with Windows 10 on January 21, 2015. (ANI)
