Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer mode Greyed Out
We have installed Edge 85.0.564.44 (Official build) (64-bit) and are attempting to do testing with IE Compatibility mode. The option appears, but is greyed out. I have also got Dev and Canary install...

animejay Springer84 Hello! I've reached out to our IE Mode team. Specifically for Enterprises, IE Mode is configured by IT Admins. (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-ie-mode).
You mentioned you were doing some testing, have you checked out the InternetExplorerIntegrationTestingAllowed policy?
Note: It is available on Windows since Version 86 or later
Thanks!

Kelly_Y The policy you mentioned "InternetExplorerIntegrationTestingAllowed" did put the option to reload the site in internet explorer mode in the More Tools menu. The other options in Default Settings are still greyed out. I will note that I had a couple members of my team check their home computers (not on company domain) with Edge 85, and some are greyed out and some are not.

Springer84 In order to test IE mode, the policy that Kelly pointed you to is the right one to use.
The settings under Internet Explorer compatibility are meant for non-managed devices and are intentionally greyed out on managed devices, so it checks out that your users are seeing it on their home devices. We understand that having them greyed out is confusing when there is no policy backing up the setting and we're working on hiding those options when they are not meant to be actionable.
Thanks for reaching out and please let us know if you have further questions!
Note that both options under "Internet Explorer compatibility" are greyed out.
I do have IE GPO settings in place, but there are no Edge GPO settings used yet. (edge://policy is empty)
And install was deployed via SCCM - Edge node - stable version - updates disabled. (In case it matters)
