Application Guard and IE Mode missing???

Question

I've been using Edge Dev. since it's release last year and never tried to use Windows Defender Application Guard nor IE Mode.&nbsp; Today I tried both.&nbsp; I installed Application Guard in Windows 10 and restarted my PC but when I open Edge Dev. it doesn't open in Application Guard nor does it give me the option when I click the three dots in the upper right corner.&nbsp; I also checked in Edge Flags and nothing is there to enable it.&nbsp; Is it not in Dev. or Stable Releases?&nbsp; Also, how do I open a website in IE Mode that I know needs to be opened in IE Mode?&nbsp; I noticed in Chrome there is a simple button to click to have it open in an IE Mode.&nbsp; Is that missing as well in Edge Dev. and Stable Releases?

Naren-&nbsp;....Thank you for the reply.&nbsp; Yes it shows that it is enabled and working.&nbsp; I also clicked settings and now the "New Application Guard Window" option has appeared!&nbsp; 🙂&nbsp; Odd.&nbsp; Seems to have taken a few restarts of the PC to appear.&nbsp; Any idea about IE Mode???&nbsp; How do I use that just for certain websites?

Thank you for the link. I was hoping that it was a feature that just enabled a button in Edge to click for the currently viewed website to be opened in IE Mode instead of going through steps to set it up and list the websites.
