What is Internet Explorer mode?

We created Internet Explorer (IE) mode in Microsoft Edge for organizations that still need Internet Explorer 11 for backward compatibility with existing websites but also need a modern browser. This feature makes it easier for organizations to use one browser, for legacy web/apps or for a modern web/app. This article provides an introduction to using Microsoft Edge with IE mode.

For an advanced configuration guide, see Configure IE mode for Microsoft Edge.

What is IE mode?

IE mode on Microsoft Edge makes it easy to use all of the sites your organization needs in a single browser. It uses the integrated Chromium engine for modern sites, and it uses the Trident MSHTML engine from Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) for legacy sites.

When a site loads in IE mode, the IE logo indicator displays on the left side of navigation bar. You can click the IE logo indicator to display additional information, as shown:

Only those sites that you specifically configure (via policy) will use IE mode, all other sites will be rendered as modern web sites. For a site to use IE mode, you need to either:

List the site in the Enterprise Mode Site List XML defined in one of these policies:
- Microsoft Edge 78 or later, "Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List"
- Internet Explorer, "Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list"
Note

We only process one Enterprise Mode Site List. The Microsoft Edge site list policy takes precedence over the Internet Explorer site list policy.
Configure the Send all intranet sites to Internet Explorer group policy and set it to Enabled (Microsoft Edge 77 or later.)

IE mode supports the following Internet Explorer functionality

All document modes and enterprise modes
ActiveX controls (such as Java or Silverlight). Note: Silverlight reaches end of support on October 12, 2021.

Internet Explorer settings and group policies that control the navigation menu.
