(MENAFN) Microsoft, the tech behemoth will shut down on June-7 its MSN website in China, which provides news and lifestyle content not to mention a search tool.
Accordingly, Microsoft has repeatedly hit roadblocks in China, a key market where it's made big bets, to secure its top ranking position among tech giants like Apple and Samsung.
The Redmond Based- firm has been embroiled in an antitrust investigation in China since July-2014, and in Jan, regulators asked it to explain major issues related to the probe.
"Microsoft remains deeply committed to China as the country hosts its biggest R&D facility outside the U.S. and is a market for products like cloud computing services," said a Microsoft official.
