Dev channel update to 79.0.294.1 is live
josh_bodner this release claims there are fixes to IE Mode, however, I can't see IE Mode in all recent releases, though it's enabled in flags. How to work with it?
Hi,
in addition to enabling the flags related to IE mode, you also need to add the group policy files to your computer/server for the Edge insider, only Dev and Beta are supported for now.
you can get the policy files from here:

HotCakeXThank you!
I hope IE Mode will get much easier to use, not only enterprises need it. For instance, there are banking and tax management applications written in Java (due to need to use cryptography, I believe), which require launching java plug in. And it looks like it's much easier for a consumer to launch IE directly than to configure IE Mode in Edge Preview.

True..when IE mode was first introduced, there was a button on the ellipsis menu that would let you launch the website you're viewing in IE mode, it was simple though, no way to tell the level of IE compatibility or whether open the website in IE program itself or open it in IE mode inside Edge insider, they removed it few months ago..
it's unfortunate Chromium dropped NPAPI support that was required for Java plugin and we're left only with IE
