Server2022 Edge IE Mode Crashes
Recent upgrade from server2016 to 22, When logged in as admin, edge edge://compat/iediagnostic shows IE working and API ver19 When logged in as non admin user, same server, different session, it shows IE not working, and ver13. IE crashes and says reinstall as admin. Reinstalling edge as admin seems to temporarily fix it, I can log in as non admin, and it shows ver19 and IE works, but then its like it updates something, because it reverts to ver13 and IE crashes again... I have set GP to use IE mode, and set siteslist for IE and Edge GPs, reinstalled edge many times, can not seem to fix this.
Edge: How to remove the notice Is in Internet explorer mode.
We have corporate apps for Explorer 11 that we're testing with Edge compatibility mode. Every time a new window opens with window.open a bar appears at the top indicating that "It's in Internet Explorer mode. Most pages will work best in Microsof Edgge. [Open in Microsoft Edge] Learn more X" They are web management applications, if at first I have put that the indicated domain runs in IE mode, we do not want that every time we open a window we ask it again. Is there any possibility to set this up?Edge Chromium doesn't import ALL favorites from IE
Hello, We are making the migration for our users from IE to Edge Chromium and have the GPO in place "Automatically import another browser's data and settings at first run" to import the Favorites from IE into Edge Chromium. We do this since we manage the favorites, and it's easier for us to drag/drop/change extensions in the Favorites folder of our Mandatory Profiles as the favorites will change from time to time. Alongside the internet shortcuts (.url) are .ppt/.pptx and .pdf files we drop in the favorites for ease of access. We also do this because we disable access to File Explorer for these terminal users. We found that only the .url extensions are copying over into Edge. We also noticed that Edge does not import folders recursively, as we have folders within folders at the root that do not transfer over. I have attached an example of our setup. In IE you can see our three folders, within 'folder 1' I have three subfolders, a .PDF, a .PPTX, and an internet shortcut to Google.com. Next we'll import the browser data from IE After the import, only folders with found content in it are transferred over. Recursive folders are not copied and even 'Test Folder 2' and 'Test Folder 3' were not transferred since they were empty of content. We found that no extension outside of .URL would copy over into Edge. For testing, we successfully added the .pptx and .pdf files manually. The PDF opens in Edge and even though the .pptx does not open, Edge still asks us what we would like to do with it. Is there a way we can transfer all of the contents from IE into Edge Chromium currently with a GPO? Or will this be a feature added in a future release? For enterprise that deny access to File Explorer for security reasons this is one of the few options we've relied on in the past with IE. Thank you. We are using Edge Version 87.0.664.75 64-bit
MS Teams External Meeting - IE to Edge redirection
Hi, Recently moved to Chromium Edge 80.0.361.54 (Official build) (64-bit), with IE11 remaining as default browser. We only use the browser client for MS Teams. Upon receiving the hyperlink to an External Teams meeting, I click and it opens in IE11 and asks to open in Edge - all fine so far. However, whene clicking the link to re-direct us to Edge, it just loads are Internal Edge channels as doesn't join the meeting. If I copy the hyperlink directly from the invite and paste into Edge, it works fine. Changing default browser is not currently an option (this also fixes the issue though). It also worked fine with legacy Edge browser It appears to be an issue passing the link through from IE to Edge Any ideas?
Is it possible to "nest" Blink and IE Mode frames?
Hi there. This is almost certainly a gigantic stretch but I figured it was worth asking. Consider a hypothetical page where the top-level frame (that is, the page referred to in the address bar) is not in the IE mode list. If this page contains an iframe whose target is a page that does come from this list will it be loaded in IE mode or will it run in Blink? Conversely, if the top-level page is run in IE mode but contains an iframe whose origin would ordinarily be loaded in Blink does that iframe run in IE mode or in Blink? I'm assuming this is done at the tab level (and therefore neither scenario is possible) but I would be thrilled to be wrong about this. I ask because I am presently in the process of migrating an application from an old, internally-developed toolkit that is only (officially) supported in IE to Angular, with the intention of dropping IE support altogether. Presently we're accomplishing this by running the Angular-ized portion out of an iframe. This 'does this thing', if you will, but Angular performs extremely poorly in IE and the old toolkit is very "here be dragons" in newer browsers. This has left us in sort of a 'pick your poison' situation until the migration is complete. The old toolkit also includes a few ActiveX controls (that will ultimately be mothballed) that are seldom used and only used by a small slice of our longest users but said users find these controls to be extremely important. If a proper IE mode configuration allows us to make the IE/Blink distinction invisible to Joe User this would significantly cut down our workload. As a final note/question, we don't really have much other than these controls left to migrate so I'm certainly open to other suggestions with regards keeping the ActiveX controls somewhat available while running the application proper in Blink. Perhaps there's a way to spawn a new IE mode window and we do all the ActiveX stuff that way?
IE mode only for 20H1 insiders?
I asked this in another thread, but I believe this is worth making a new thread over. So I've been seeing reports on other websites that IE mode is now available in dev/canary edge chromium, but if I try it out, it just says I need to update my version of internet explorer. I've also heard that it only works right now with those who are 20H1 insiders. Is that true? Can someone from the development team or someone who is a windows 10 insider shed some light on this confusion?
