Some websites only work with Internet Explorer—these websites might be built on older internet technology and not function properly while using a modern browser. Understanding this, Microsoft has built Microsoft Edge with IE mode.

Info

Please contact your BRM if your site relies on IE mode. IE mode enables backward compatibility and will be supported through at least 2029.

To help users get started with IE mode, the redirection process will add a “Reload in IE mode” button to their toolbar in Microsoft Edge. That way, if you encounter a website that may not work correctly—or if you visit a website that asks you to open the site using Internet Explorer—you can easily click the button to open the page in IE mode. Microsoft Edge will even ask you if they’d like the page to open in IE mode next time automatically! Microsoft Edge will check in with you every 30 days to make sure they still need IE mode for the site. As more and more sites get updated to modern standards, users will need to use IE mode less and the modern rendering engine more.
