VNX: VNX2: How to enable Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge Windows 11

Customer prefers or requires Microsoft Edge.
There is a need to run Unisphere within Microsoft Edge.

Java is no longer supported with Microsoft Edge.

1. Open Edge, Go to Settings by clicking three-dot menu on the right side of the top menu bar.

2. Navigate to Default Browser to Use IE Mode.

3. For option Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer mode you can set to either Default or Allow mode.
4. Select How and When Sites Will Load in IE Mode.
 - If you choose the Default setting presents an option to open Edge in IE mode if you have opened a page in that mode before. (This does not mean that IE mode is the default; this is the default setting in Edge.)
  - If you choose Allow, you must restart your browser. You will be able to choose Reload in Internet Explorer mode from the settings and more menu, or by right-clicking the tab and then choosing Open link in new Internet Explorer mode tab.

5. Open Any Pages Requiring IE. When you do, you see a notification about the mode with a switch for making the site always use IE mode. You also see a button to switch to it once you are done browsing the site that requires IE.
