Yeah, IE has at least two parts: "mshtml.dll" which is the rendering engine, and "iexplore.exe" which is the UI frame around it. On my system mshtml is 23MB and iexplore is 800kB, so I think we can infer where most of the logic is.

Microsoft made the integrated help, "active desktop", and I think a few parts of Explorer depend on mshtml.dll.

As well as, what was the first wave of "Electron" apps, thankfully largely ignored.
