1 TopicManual: How to set up IE Mode (Internet Explorer Integration) in Edge C (Updated)
So, since it took me almost a day to collect all necessary info and successfully set up IE Mode in Edge, I thought it may be helpful to post a step-by-step manual and some useful notes. Prerequisites: Microsoft Edge Dev v77.0.223 or higher Windows 10, v1903 with KB4503293 or higher and KB4501375 or higher Windows 10, v1809 with KB4509479 or higher 1. To activate IE Mode open Edge Dev and go to experimental features by typing edge://flags/ (Note: Edge Canary doesn't support IE Mode by now) Under Enable IE Integration select IE mode (Note: don't choose "NeedIE" as it has no effect by now) Optionally you can set Enable enhanced hang resistance for IE Integration to Enabled Optionally you can set Enable IE window hang resistance for IE Integration to Enabled 2. If you don't have an Enterprise Mode site list download the Enterprise Mode Site List Manger v2 from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=49974 (Note: the site list xml has to use the v2 scheme to work with Edge Chromium) To create a site list open the Manager, click Add and type the domain that should use IE Mode (Note: just enter the plain domain, eg "test.contoso.com" without the leading http:// or https://) Under Compat Mode select IE8 Enterprise Mode Under Open in select IE11 to open the site in Edge with IE Mode (Note: options "None" or "MSEdge" will open the site without IE Mode) Click File > Save to XML and publish the site list in IIS or for testing just use the xml as local file on your PC 3. Download the Edge Chromium group policy template files from https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/de-de/enterprise Open the .zip file and go to policy_templates > windows > admx Copy msedge.admx to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\ Copy all *.adml files from your language folder (eg. "en-US") to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions\<your language folder>\ 4. Open the Local Group Policy Editor and edit the following entries in Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates: Enable Microsoft Edge > Configure Internet Explorer configuration and set it to Internet Explorer mode Enable Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list and set the path to your XML-sitelist, either as URL (eg. https://test.contoso.com/list.xml) or as UNC if you're using a local XML file (eg. file:///C:\test\list.xml) Optional, but not needed for IE Mode: For compatibility, you can set the following, so Enterprise sites visited in Classic Edge will open in Internet Explorer. Enable Windows Components > Microsoft Edge > Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list and set the path to your XML-sitelist, either as URL (eg. https://test.contoso.com/list.xml) or as UNC if you're using a local XML file (eg. file:///C:\test\list.xml) The 3 policies above can be also set via registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge > InternetExplorerIntegrationLevel (REG_DWORD) with value 1 (or decimal: 0x00000001) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode > SiteList (REG_SZ) with path to your XML-sitelist (eg. https://test.contoso,com/list.xml) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Main\EnterpriseMode > SiteList (REG_SZ) with path to your XML-sitelist (eg. https://test.contoso,com/list.xml) To check if Edge Dev is recognizing your sitelist correctly, type edge://compat in the address bar. This will show all entries from your XML-sitelist. Open your desired website and - voila, Edge IE Mode is running. Please get back to me if I missed something so I can update the manual.154KViews2likes30Comments
