Application Guard and IE Mode missing???

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

That was the official way but there is another way that is through Flags and no Group Policy required.
How to enable and use Internet Explorer mode in the new Microsoft Edge
If you’re in an enterprise or business, you can enable Microsoft Edge’s Internet Explorer mode. It gives you a simplified experience that combines a modern rendering engine with compatibility for legacy websites. Here’s how.
- Open up the browser, and visit the following address: edge://flags/#edge-internet-explorer-integration.
- You should then see a line on the top saying Enable IE Integration.
- You’ll want to click on the box next to that line and select IE Mode from the dropdown menu.
- Create a shortcut for Edge on your desktop.

- Thank you for the information. That's what I'm talking about. Better yet how about having the Enterprise version of Edge have by default a button on the address bar that opens the current website in IE Mode? Have it just in the Enterprise version so that home users don't get confused or have issues by using it.
