Can't open this page in internet explorer mode. Try reinstalling Edge with Administrator Privledges
Trying to test IE mode. Set the policy to redirect all intranet sites to IE and set mode to Integrated. When I browse to an intranet site, it launches a new IE 11 window and the originating Edge tab displays the above error message.

This is not solved yet, at least not for us and a few others.
I have the same problem but I've noticed it only happens on my Windows 8.1 machines. It works ok on Windows 7 (don't have any Windows 10 clients to test at the moment). I'm using the Edge Beta, its installed at the "system" level, it just won't work on Windows 8.1. I have all the prerequisites installed.

billroland Are you using the "Send all intranet sites to Internet Explorer" policy as well? Can you please share what edge:\\version shows for Command-Line?
Shilpa_SubramanianI am using the "send all intranet sites to Internet Explorer" policy.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge Beta\Application\msedge.exe" --flag-switches-begin --flag-switches-end
Just doesn't work at all on Windows 8.1
I'm getting the same error message, but edge://version is giving me the following:
- Microsoft Edge: 77.0.230.2 (Official build) dev (64-bit)
- Revision: 973ea789f91368c69555e279e4be4754821580c2
- Executable path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge Dev\Application\msedge.exe
In addition to this, edge://policy is reporting the following:
- InternetExplorerIntegrationLevel = 1
- SendIntranetToInternetExplorer = true
So far as I can tell, this is a correctly-installed version of the Edge Insider Dev build, with the appropriate policies set up. However, opening an intranet zone site still launches IE11 and presents the above error in Edge.

sw175 - Can you please share what the Command-Line shows on edge://version as well?
- Shilpa_Subramanian
If you type edge://version in the Edge address bar, the Executable path should show a path starting with C:\Program Files... to indicate a system install. If the Executable path begins with C:\Users.. then you will need to uninstall and reinstall Edge with administrator privileges.
Additionally, IE mode is not supported on the Canary channel. Please use the Dev channel to try out IE mode.
Shilpa_Subramanian Thanks. The issue is solved. Installed the latest update according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/DeployEdge/edge-ie-mode
- Same issue on my side.
