    eladz6  That is odd. We can take a look. Can you please send us the following - 

    1. A screenshot of edge://compat/iediagnostic

    2.  Start Edge with the command line "msedge.exe --enable-logging --v=1 --vmodule=*/dual_engine/*"       

    This will create a log in "%localappdata%\microsoft\Edge<Canary/Dev/Beta>\user data\chrome_debug.log"

     This log is human readable and will contain URLs. Please proof read to ensure there is no PII information included before you share back with us.

    Feel free to share the log via Private Message if you prefer.

     

    Thanks!

I see the same problem in Edge Version 100.0.1185.36 (April 2022)
I have created a sitelist and included it in Edge using Group Policy Editor.

1. When I open Edge and go to the IE11 compatability site, The site will NOT be opened in Internet Explorer compatibility mode.

if I instead
1. Open edge, go to edge://compat/enterprise and press "Force Update"
2. Opening the IE11 compatability site will open the site in Compatability mode

If I close Edge and open it again, I need to do the "Force Update" in edge://compat/enterprise again to make the site work in compatibility mode.

Is there any new information about this behaviour?

    Hi Kelly, Thanks for the reply...

    Yes, yesterday I tried setting setting the “Configure Internet Explorer integration” option and this seems to have done the trick.

    I was, however, hoping for an easier solution. I have to instruct non-PC-super-users to setup a pc for IE compatibility, and the solution I have (as described in your link), requires downloading and installing "Microsoft Edge Policy Template" to the Group Policy Editor (this is required for the option “Configure Internet Explorer integration” to be available). Even for me as a professional, this is not an every day task, so for a non-PC-super-user I think this is more or less impossible.

     

    Do you know if it possible to set the “Configure Internet Explorer integration” setting trought the registry?

    Best regards

    John
