    Taichi_Motoki Hi!  Do you know if refreshing the page fixes the issue and the expected UA String is sent?  

     

    The team is tracking an issue starting in v96 involving IE mode and the wrong UA String.  It appears the introduction of the InternetExplorerIntegrationComplexNavDataTypes policy might be a factor.  One work around suggested is disabling the InternetExplorerIntegrationComplexNavDataTypes policy (set to 0).  If this is the same issue you are experiencing, we can keep you updated regarding the fix.  I believe the most recent Canary Channel build released today might already have the fix.  

     

    If you have a separate/different issue, I think it might be best to reach out to Support.
