Let us know if that helps! Thank you!

Also, there have been some other discussions about this on a separate thread (Re: Problems with Enterprise Mode (IE Mode) in recent builds ? - Microsoft Tech Community), if you want to take a look.

    Kelly_Y That is great news! Can you share what specific version of Edge Stable (and Edge Beta) will include the fix? That will make it easier to check as users report the issue, to see if they got the right update yet. Thanks
