Add-in error asking for internet explorer when using Insights

Copper Contributor

I have a really odd issue. When trying to use Insights (https://support.office.com/en-us/article/insights-in-excel-3223aab8-f543-4fda-85ed-76bb0295ffc4?ui=e...). I receive an error message saying that the add-in cannot load because my version of Internet Explorer in not supported.

 

I am very puzzled, and cannot find any solutions. I reinstalled Office, which did nothing to help. I am running Excel 2016 on Windows 10 via Parallels on a Mac. Screen shot of the error is attached. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Nathan,

 

Try to reset Internet Explorer settings.

Thanks of the reply, but no solution. I don't even have IE installed my machine. I do have Edge and that seems to be working fine for growing the web. I don't understand why IE is relevant in the first place, and I also though it was replaced by Edge.

If so, I recommend you to ask this community, because it's the best place to get support.

Nathan, IE is built-in into Win10, another story it's not default browser (Edge one). Here is how to find it.

Solved. Thank you to both of you for the solution. Really excited to try Insights, and now I can!

So far so good, you are welcome
