IE11 need for MS Edge compatability

Hi MS Team,   Can you share the need of IE11 for Edge compatibility? As an enterprise we would like to remove IE11 from the users machine.

You can set that to always open or "https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-ie-mode-policies#redirect-sites-from-ie-to-microsoft-edge"

 

Please check this policy and page, the one I linked you can make all sites no matter if its in the ie site list to open in edge. Hope taht helps 🙂 


I dont' know if there is a policy to make IE always open Edge yet, still finding. This dosent' remove IE but just prevnts users from accessing


Hope this works for now 🙂

PS" I wonder why I overlooked it

    Deleted, Thanks for the link - i will explore this for the feasibility.

     

    Any clue, if the IE can be configured to be accessed by Edge only ?

    This could be helpful since the IE will not be available to the User from the usage perspective.

      In the default browser page in settings, in ie mode, please set always open IE in Edge. Please toggle the options shown in the image pelase. What that does it opens the default homepage in IE to Edge and it clsoes IE. Already tested but not sure about a policy
