Internet Explorer mode in Edge is not working
Microsoftrafalw15851895 Hello! There are 2 different IE mode features and want to make sure they are not getting confused.
- The first is setting up IE mode with a site list via policy (What is Internet Explorer mode? | Microsoft Docs) This is normally done by the IT admin and there is no specific timeframe for the sites to be in IE mode.
- The second is the local site list for IE mode (Local site list for Internet Explorer (IE) mode | Microsoft Docs). This allows users to add sites to temporarily (normally 30 days) open in IE mode. The sites can be added here: edge://settings/defaultBrowser
Please note: Windows Server 2016 is not supported for the local site list.
If you need help setting up IE mode, we offer various support options. If you have Microsoft Unified Support, you can reach out to that support service for help with the transition. There’s also FastTrack, available at no extra charge to customers with 150 or more paid seats of Windows 10.
We also recommend our Microsoft Edge + Internet Explorer mode Getting Started guide and our IE mode blog series.

Hi yes i know about both IE mods but that is not a problem. In first case i configured IE mode via GPO but it is not working. Second option (local site list) is not possible to configure because I don't see any of settings in which I can configure it. IE mode settings are not visible in Edge. And about local site list feature on windows server 2016. Ok that feature will not work but it should be possible to open webpage in IE mode using button "Reload in Internet Explorer mode”. Unfortunately that button doesn't exist.

rafalw15851895 Hi - I'm not an expert setting up the IE mode policies but one thing that jumped out is the InternetExplorerIntegrationSiteList policy which should be an XML file and not a specific website. Here is an example format: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/ie11-deploy-guide/enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance#enterprise-mode-v2-schema-example
Please check out some of the resources mentioned before to help with IE mode. Thanks!
