Can't open this page in internet explorer mode. Try reinstalling Edge with Administrator Privledges
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

billroland Thank you for your patience! We've identified the bug causing this issue on Windows 8.1. We are working on a fix and you should be able to test it out in the Canary and Dev channels soon.

Shilpa_Subramanian Thank you for the fix. I was asking myself whether it was me or my setup that caused it to fail. The error message is misleading, too.
Can you add compatibility for 1607 / Server 2016 and 1809, too while you're at it?
