# Add employees to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After you get the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal up and running, you must add your employees. During this process, you'll also assign roles and groups.
The available roles are:
- **Requester.** The primary role to assign to employees that need to access the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal. The Requester can create change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal change requests, and sign off and close personal change requests.
- **App Manager.** This role is considered part of the Approvers group. The App Manager can approve change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal requests, and sign off and close personal requests.
- **Group Head.** This role is considered part of the Approvers group. The Group Head can approve change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal requests, and sign off and close personal requests.
- **Administrator.** The role with the highest-level rights; we recommend limiting the number of employees you grant this role. The Administrator can perform any task that can be performed by the other roles, in addition to adding employees to the portal, assigning employee roles, approving registrations to the portal, configuring portal settings (for example, determining the freeze schedule, determining the pre-production and production XML paths, and determining the attachment upload location), and using the standalone Enterprise Mode Site List Manager page.
**To add an employee to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal**
1. Open the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal and click the **Employee Management** icon in the upper-right area of the page.
The **Employee management** page appears.
2. Click **Add a new employee**.
The **Add a new employee** page appears.
3. Fill out the fields for each employee, including:
- **Email.** Add the employee's email address.
- **Name.** This box autofills based on the email address.
- **Role.** Pick a single role for the employee, based on the list above.
- **Group name.** Pick the name of the employee's group. The group association also assigns a group of Approvers.
- **Comments.** Add optional comments about the employee.
- **Active.** Click the check box to make the employee active in the system. If you want to keep the employee in the system, but you want to prevent access, clear this check box.
4. Click **Save**.
**To export all employees to an Excel spreadsheet**
1. On the **Employee management** page, click **Export to Excel**.
2. Save the EnterpriseModeUsersList.xlsx file.
The Excel file includes all employees with access to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, including user name, email address, role, and group name.

# Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
**Applies to:**
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
You can add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list by creating a custom text (TXT) or Extensible Markup Language (XML) file of problematic sites and then adding it in the **Bulk add from file** area of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager. You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
If you want to add your websites one at a time, see Add sites to the [Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (TXT) file
You can create and use a custom text file to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time. <p>**Important**<br>This text file is only lets you add multiple sites at the same time. You can’t use this file to deploy Enterprise Mode into your company.
You must separate each site using commas or carriage returns. For example:
```
microsoft.com, bing.com, bing.com/images
```
**-OR-**
```
microsoft.com
bing.com
bing.com/images
```
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (XML) file using the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema
You can create and use a custom XML file with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time. For more info about the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
Each XML file must include:
- **Version number.** This number must be incremented with each version of the Enterprise Mode site list, letting Internet Explorer know whether the list is new. Approximately 65 seconds after Internet Explorer 11 starts, it compares your site list version to the stored version number. If your file has a higher number, the newer version is loaded. <p>**Important**<br>After this check, IE11 won’t look for an updated list again until you restart the browser.
- **&lt;emie&gt; tag.** This tag specifies the domains and domain paths that must be rendered using IE7 Enterprise Mode, IE8 Enterprise Mode, or the default IE11 browser environment.<p>**Important**<br>If you decide a site requires IE7 Enterprise Mode, you must add `forceCompatView=”true”` to your XML file. That code tells Enterprise Mode to check for a `DOCTYPE` tag on the specified webpage. If there is, the site renders using Windows Internet Explorer 7. If there’s no tag, the site renders using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.
- **&lt;docMode&gt; tag.**This tag specifies the domains and domain paths that need either to appear using the specific doc mode you assigned to the site. Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
### Enterprise Mode v.1 XML schema example
The following is an example of what your XML file should look like when you’re done adding your sites. For more info about how to create your XML file, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
```
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">www.cpandl.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">www.woodgrovebank.com</domain>
<domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true">adatum.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">relecloud.com
<path exclude="false">/about</path>
</domain>
<domain exclude="false">fabrikam.com
<path exclude="true">/products</path>
</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain>contoso.com
<path docMode="7">/travel</path>
</domain>
<domain>fabrikam.com
<path docMode="7">/products</path>
</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
To make sure your site list is up-to-date; wait 65 seconds after opening IE and then check that the `CurrentVersion` value in the `HKEY\CURRENT\USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode\` registry key matches the version number in your file.<p>**Important**<br>If `CurrentVersion` is not set or is wrong, it means that the XML parsing failed. This can mean that the XML file isn’t there, that there are access problems, or that the XML file format is wrong. Don’t manually change the `CurrentVersion` registry setting. You must make your changes to your site list and then update the list using the import function in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (.
## Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
After you create your .xml or .txt file, you can bulk add the sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1).
**To add multiple sites**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1), click **Bulk add from file**.
2. Go to your site list (either .txt or .xml) to add the included sites to the tool, and then click **Open**.<p>
Each site is validated and if successful, added to the global site list when you click **OK** to close the menu. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you can try to fix the issues or pick the site and click **Add to list** to ignore the validation problem. For more information about fixing validation problems, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
3. Click **OK** to close the **Bulk add sites to the list** menu.
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save to XML**, and save your file.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
## Next steps
After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu. For more information, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).

You can add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list by creating a custom text (TXT) or Extensible Markup Language (XML) file of problematic sites and then adding it in the **Bulk add from file** area of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2). You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.

## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (XML) file using the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema
You can create and use a custom XML file with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time.
Each XML file must include:
- **site-list version number**. This number must be incremented with each version of the Enterprise Mode site list, letting Internet Explorer know whether the list is new. Approximately 65 seconds after Internet Explorer 11 starts, it compares your site list version to the stored version number. If your file has a higher number, the newer version is loaded. <p>**Important**<br>After this check, IE11 won’t look for an updated list again until you restart the browser. 
- **&lt;compat-mode&gt; tag.** This tag specifies what compatibility setting are used for specific sites or domains.
- **&lt;open-in&gt; tag.** This tag specifies what browser opens for each sites or domain.
### Enterprise Mode v.2 XML schema example
The following is an example of what your XML file should look like when you’re done adding your sites. For more info about how to create your XML file, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md).
```
<site-list version="205">
<!--- File creation header --->
<created-by>
<tool>EnterpriseSitelistManager</tool>
<version>10240</version>
<date-created>20150728.135021</date-created>
</created-by>
<!--- Begin Site List --->
<site url="www.cpandl.com">
<compat-mode>IE8Enterprise</compat-mode>
<open-in>MSEdge</open-in>
</site>
<site url="www.cpandl.com/images">
<compat-mode>IE7Enterprise</compat-mode>
<open-in>IE11</open-in>
</site>
<site url="contoso.com">
<compat-mode>default</compat-mode>
<open-in>IE11</open-in>
</site>
</site-list>
```
In the above example, the following is true:
- www.cpandl.com, as the main domain, must use IE8 Enterprise Mode. However, www.cpandl.com/images must use IE7 Enterprise Mode.
- contoso.com, and all of its domain paths, can use the default compatibility mode for the site.
To make sure your site list is up-to-date; wait 65 seconds after opening IE and then check that the `CurrentVersion` value in the `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode\` registry key matches the version number in your file. <p>**Important**<br>If `CurrentVersion` is not set or is wrong, it means that the XML parsing failed. This can mean that the XML file isn’t there, that there are access problems, or that the XML file format is wrong. Don’t manually change the `CurrentVersion` registry setting. You must make your changes to your site list and then update the list using the import function in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2).
## Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)

# Add single sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
**Applies to:**

- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Enterprise Mode is a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11, letting websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Internet Explorer 8, avoiding the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.<p>**Important**<br>You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
<p>**Note**<br>If you need to include a lot of sites, instead of adding them one at a time, you can create a list of websites and add them all at the same time. For more information, see [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Windows 7 and 8.1 Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
## Adding a site to your compatibility list
You can add individual sites to your compatibility list by using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager.
<p>**Note**<br>If you're using the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, you'll need to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1). For more info, see [Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
**To add a site to your compatibility list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1), click **Add**.
2. Type the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *&lt;domain&gt;.com* or *&lt;domain&gt;.com*/*&lt;path&gt;* into the **URL** box.<p>
Don't include the `https://` or `https://` designation. The tool automatically tries both versions during validation.
3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.<p>
Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool.
4. Choose **IE7 Enterprise Mode**, **IE8 Enterprise Mode**, or the appropriate document mode for sites that must be rendered using the emulation of a previous version of IE, or pick **Default IE** if the site should use the latest version of IE.
The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, **IE8 Enterprise Mode** is automatically selected.
Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
5. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.<p>
If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway.
6. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).

Enterprise Mode is a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11, letting websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 8 or Windows Internet Explorer 7, avoiding the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.<p>**Important**<br>You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
<p>**Note**<br>If you need to include a lot of sites, instead of adding them one at a time, you can create a list of websites and add them all at the same time. For more information, see the [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) or the [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) topic, based on your operating system.
## Adding a site to your compatibility list
You can add individual sites to your compatibility list by using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager.<p>
**Note**<br>If you're using the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, you'll need to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1). For more info, see [Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the WEnterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
**To add a site to your compatibility list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2), click **Add**.
2. Type the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *&lt;domain&gt;.com* or *&lt;domain&gt;.com*/*&lt;path&gt;* into the **URL** box.<p>
Don't include the `https://` or `https://` designation. The tool automatically tries both versions during validation.
3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.<p>
Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool.
4. In the **Compat Mode** box, choose one of the following:
- **IE8Enterprise**. Loads the site in IE8 Enterprise Mode.
- **IE7Enterprise**. Loads the site in IE7 Enterprise Mode.
- **IE\[*x*\]**. Where \[x\] is the document mode number and the site loads in the specified document mode.
- **Default Mode**. Loads the site using the default compatibility mode for the page.
The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, **IE8 Enterprise Mode** is automatically selected.
Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
5. In conjunction with the compatibility mode, you'll need to use the **Open in** box to pick which browser opens the site.
- **IE11**. Opens the site in IE11, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.
- **MSEdge**. Opens the site in Microsoft Edge, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.
- **None**. Opens in whatever browser the employee chooses.
6. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.<p>
If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway.
7. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).

After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu. For more information, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).

# Administrative templates and Internet Explorer 11
Administrative Templates are made up of a hierarchy of policy categories and subcategories that define how your policy settings appear in the Local Group Policy Editor, including:
- What registry locations correspond to each setting.
- What value options or restrictions are associated with each setting.
- The default value for many settings.
- Text explanations about each setting and the supported version of Internet Explorer.
For a conceptual overview of Administrative Templates, see [Managing Group Policy ADMX Files Step-by-Step Guide](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=214519).
## What are Administrative Templates?
Administrative Templates are XML-based, multi-language files that define the registry-based Group Policy settings in the Local Group Policy Editor. There are two types of Administrative Templates:
- **ADMX.** A language-neutral setup file that states the number and type of policy setting, and the location by category, as it shows up in the Local Group Policy Editor.
- **ADML.** A language-specific setup file that provides language-related information to the ADMX file. This file lets the policy setting show up in the right language in the Local Group Policy Editor. You can add new languages by adding new ADML files in the required language.
## How do I store Administrative Templates?
As an admin, you can create a central store folder on your SYSVOL directory, named **PolicyDefinitions**. For example, %*SystemRoot*%\\PolicyDefinitions. This folder provides a single, centralized storage location for your Administrative Templates (both ADMX and ADML) files, so they can be used by your domain-based Group Policy Objects (GPOs).
<p>**Important**<br>Your Group Policy tools use the ADMX files in your store, ignoring any local copies. For more information about creating a central store, see [Scenario 1: Editing the Local GPO Using ADMX Files](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=276810).
## Administrative Templates-related Group Policy settings
When you install Internet Explorer 11, it updates the local administrative files, Inetres.admx and Inetres.adml, both located in the **PolicyDefinitions** folder.
<p>**Note**<br>You won't see the new policy settings if you try to view or edit your policy settings on a computer that isn't running IE11. To fix this, you can either install IE11, or you can copy the updated Inetres.admx and Inetres.adml files from another computer to the **PolicyDefinitions** folder on this computer.
IE11 provides these new policy settings, which are editable in the Local Group Policy Editor, and appear in the following policy paths:
- Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\
- User Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\
|Catalog |Description |
| ------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------|
|IE |Turns standard IE configuration on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Accelerators |Sets up and manages Accelerators. |
|Internet Explorer\Administrator Approved Controls |Turns ActiveX controls on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Application Compatibility |Turns the **Cut**, **Copy**, or **Paste** operations on or off. This setting also requires that `URLACTION_SCRIPT_PASTE` is set to **Prompt**. |
|Internet Explorer\Browser Menus |Shows or hides the IE menus and menu options.|
|Internet Explorer\Corporate Settings |Turns off whether you specify the code download path for each computer. |
|Internet Explorer\Delete Browsing History |Turns the **Delete Browsing History** settings on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Internet Control Panel |Turns pages on and off in the **Internet Options** dialog box. Also turns on and off the subcategories that manage settings on the **Content**, **General**, **Security** and **Advanced** pages. |
|Internet Explorer\Internet Settings |Sets up and manages the **Advanced settings**, **AutoComplete**, **Display Settings**, and **URL Encoding** options. |
|Internet Explorer\Persistence Behavior |Sets up and manages the file size limits for Internet security zones. |
|Internet Explorer\Privacy |Turns various privacy-related features on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Security Features |Turns various security-related features on and off in the browser, Windows Explorer, and other applications. |
|Internet Explorer\Toolbars |Turns on and off the ability for users to edit toolbars in the browser. You can also set the default toolbar buttons here. |
|RSS Feeds |Sets up and manages RSS feeds in the browser. |
## Editing Group Policy settings
Regardless which tool you're using to edit your Group Policy settings, you'll need to follow one of these guides for step-by-step editing instructions:
- **If you're using the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) or the Local Group Policy Editor.** See [Edit Administrative Template Policy Settings](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=214521) for step-by-step instructions about editing your Administrative Templates.
- **If you're using GPMC with Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM).** See [Checklist: Create, Edit, and Deploy a GPO](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=214522) for step-by-step instructions about how to check out a GPO from the AGPM archive, edit it, and request deployment.

# Approve a change request using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After a change request is successfully submitted to the pre-defined Approver(s), employees granted the role of **App Manager**, **Group Head**, or **Administrator**, they must approve the changes.
## Approve or reject a change request
The Approvers get an email stating that a Requester successfully opened, tested, and submitted the change request to the Approvers group. The Approvers can accept or reject a change request.
**To approve or reject a change request**
1. The Approver logs onto the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, **All Approvals** page.
The Approver can also get to the **All Approvals** page by clicking **Approvals Pending** from the left pane.
2. The Approver clicks the expander arrow (**\/**) to the right side of the change request, showing the list of Approvers and the **Approve** and **Reject** buttons.
3. The Approver reviews the change request, making sure it's correct. If the info is correct, the Approver clicks **Approve** to approve the change request. If the info seems incorrect, or if the app shouldn't be added to the site list, the Approver clicks **Reject**.
An email is sent to the Requester, the Approver(s) group, and the Administrator(s) group, with the updated status of the request.
## Send a reminder to the Approver(s) group
If the change request is sitting in the approval queue for too long, the Requester can send a reminder to the group.
- From the **My Approvals** page, click the checkbox next to the name of each Approver to be reminded, and then click **Send reminder**.
An email is sent to the selected Approver(s).
## View rejected change requests
The original Requester, the Approver(s) group, and the Administrator(s) group can all view the rejected change request.
**To view the rejected change request**
- In the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, click **Rejected** from the left pane.
All rejected change requests appear, with role assignment determining which ones are visible.
## Next steps
After an Approver approves the change request, it must be scheduled for inclusion in the production Enterprise Mode Site List. For the scheduling steps, see the [Schedule approved change requests for production using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](schedule-production-change-enterprise-mode-portal.md) topic.

# Check for a new Enterprise Mode site list xml file
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You can have centralized control over Enterprise Mode by creating a single, global XML site list that includes the list of websites to render using Enterprise Mode. You can add and remove sites from your XML list as frequently as you want, changing which sites should render in Enterprise Mode for your employees. For information about turning on Enterprise Mode and using site lists, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
The information in this topic only covers HTTPS protocol. We strongly recommend that you use HTTPS protocol instead of file protocol due to increased performance.
**How Internet Explorer 11 looks for an updated site list**
1. Internet Explorer starts up and looks for an updated site list in the following places:
1. **In the cache container.** IE first checks the cache container to see if it finds your XML site list.
2. **In the local cache.** If there’s nothing in the cache container, IE checks your local cache for the site list.
3. **On the server.** Based on standard IE caching rules, IE might look for a copy of your site list in the location you put specified in the **SiteList** value of the registry.
2. If there’s an .xml file in the cache container, IE waits 65 seconds and then checks the local cache for a newer version of the file from the server, based on standard caching rules. If the server file has a different version number than the version in the cache container, the server file is used and stored in the cache container.<p>**Note**<br>If you’re already using a site list, enterprise mode continues to work during the 65 second wait; it just uses your existing site list instead of your new one.

# Collect data using Enterprise Site Discovery
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Use Internet Explorer to collect data on computers running Windows Internet Explorer 8 through Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, or Windows 7. This inventory information helps you build a list of websites used by your company so you can make more informed decisions about your IE deployments, including figuring out which sites might be at risk or require overhauls during future upgrades.
>**Upgrade Analytics and Windows upgrades**<br>
>You can use Upgrade Analytics to help manage your Windows 10 upgrades on devices running Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 (SP1). You can also use Upgrade Analytics to review several site discovery reports. Check out Upgrade Analytics from [here](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/deploy/upgrade-analytics-get-started).
## Before you begin
Before you start, you need to make sure you have the following:
- Latest cumulative security update (for all supported versions of Internet Explorer):
1. Go to the [Microsoft Security Bulletin](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=718223) page, and change the filter to **Windows Internet Explorer 11**.
![microsoft security bulletin techcenter.](images/securitybulletin-filter.png)
2. Click the title of the latest cumulative security update, and then scroll down to the **Affected software** table.
![affected software section.](images/affectedsoftware.png)
3. Click the link that represents both your operating system version and Internet Explorer 11, and then follow the instructions in the **How to get this update** section.
- [Setup and configuration package](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=517719), including:
- Configuration-related PowerShell scripts
- IETelemetry.mof file
- Sample Configuration Manager report templates
You must use System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager or later for these samples to work.
Both the PowerShell script and the Managed Object Format (.MOF) file need to be copied to the same location on the client device, before you run the scripts.
## What data is collected?
Data is collected on the configuration characteristics of IE and the sites it browses, as shown here.
|Data point |IE11 |IE10 |IE9 |IE8 |Description |
|------------------------|-----|-----|-----|-----|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|URL | X | X | X | X |URL of the browsed site, including any parameters included in the URL. |
|Domain | X | X | X | X |Top-level domain of the browsed site. |
|ActiveX GUID | X | X | X | X |GUID of the ActiveX controls loaded by the site. |
|Document mode | X | X | X | X |Document mode used by IE for a site, based on page characteristics. |
|Document mode reason | X | X | | |The reason why a document mode was set by IE. |
|Browser state reason | X | X | | |Additional information about why the browser is in its current state. Also called, browser mode. |
|Hang count | X | X | X | X |Number of visits to the URL when the browser hung. |
|Crash count | X | X | X | X |Number of visits to the URL when the browser crashed. |
|Most recent navigation failure (and count) | X | X | X | X |Description of the most recent navigation failure (like, a 404 bad request or 500 internal server error) and the number of times it happened. |
|Number of visits | X | X | X | X |Number of times a site has been visited. |
|Zone | X | X | X | X |Zone used by IE to browse sites, based on browser settings. |
>**Important**<br>By default, IE doesn’t collect this data; you have to turn this feature on if you want to use it. After you turn on this feature, data is collected on all sites visited by IE, except during InPrivate sessions. Additionally, the data collection process is silent, so there’s no notification to the employee. Therefore, you must get consent from the employee before you start collecting info. You must also make sure that using this feature complies with all applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
### Understanding the returned reason codes
The following tables provide more info about the Document mode reason, Browser state reason, and the Zone codes that are returned as part of your data collection.
#### DocMode reason
The codes in this table can tell you what document mode was set by IE for a webpage.<br>These codes only apply to Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|3 |Page state is set by the `FEATURE_DOCUMENT_COMPATIBLE_MODE` feature control key.|
|4 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible meta tag. |
|5 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible HTTP header. |
|6 |Page appears on an active **Compatibility View** list. |
|7 |Page is using native XML parsing. |
|8 |Page is using a special Quirks Mode Emulation (QME) mode that uses the modern layout engine, but the quirks behavior of Internet Explorer 5. |
|9 |Page state is set by the browser mode and the page's DOCTYPE.|
#### Browser state reason
The codes in this table can tell you why the browser is in its current state. Also called “browser mode”.<br>These codes only apply to Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|1 |Site is on the intranet, with the **Display intranet sites in Compatibility View** box checked. |
|2 |Site appears on an active **Compatibility View** list, created in Group Policy. |
|3 |Site appears on an active **Compatibility View** list, created by the user. |
|4 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible tag. |
|5 |Page state is set by the **Developer** toolbar. |
|6 |Page state is set by the `FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION` feature control key. |
|7 |Site appears on the Microsoft **Compatibility View (CV)** list. |
|8 |Site appears on the **Quirks** list, created in Group Policy. |
|11 |Site is using the default browser. |
#### Zone
The codes in this table can tell you what zone is being used by IE to browse sites, based on browser settings.<br>These codes apply to Internet Explorer 8, Internet Explorer 9, Internet Explorer 10, and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|-1 |Internet Explorer is using an invalid zone. |
|0 |Internet Explorer is using the Local machine zone. |
|1 |Internet Explorer is using the Local intranet zone. |
|2 |Internet Explorer is using the Trusted sites zone. |
|3 |Internet Explorer is using the Internet zone. |
|4 |Internet Explorer is using the Restricted sites zone. |
## Where is the data stored and how do I collect it?
The data is stored locally, in an industry-standard WMI class, .MOF file or in an XML file, depending on your configuration. This file remains on the client computer until it’s collected. To collect the files, we recommend:
- **WMI file**. Use Microsoft Configuration Manager or any agent that can read the contents of a WMI class on your computer.
- **XML file**. Any agent that works with XML can be used.
## WMI Site Discovery suggestions
We recommend that you collect your data for at most a month at a time, to capture a user’s typical workflow. We don’t recommend collecting data longer than that because the data is stored in a WMI provider and can fill up your computer’s hard drive. You may also want to collect data only for pilot users or a representative sample of people, instead of turning this feature on for everyone in your company.
On average, a website generates about 250bytes of data for each visit, causing only a minor impact to Internet Explorer’s performance. Over the course of a month, collecting data from 20 sites per day from 1,000 users, you’ll get about 150MB of data:<p>250 bytes (per site visit) X 20 sites/day X 30 days = (approximately) 150KB X 1000 users = (approximately) 150MB
>**Important**<br>The data collection process is silent, so there’s no notification to the employee. Therefore, you must get consent from the employee before you start collecting info. You must also make sure that using this feature complies with all applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
## Getting ready to use Enterprise Site Discovery
Before you can start to collect your data, you must run the provided PowerShell script (IETelemetrySetUp.ps1) on your client devices to start generating the site discovery data and to set up a place to store this data locally. Then, you must start collecting the site discovery data from the client devices, using one of these three options:
- Collect your hardware inventory using the MOF Editor, while connecting to a client device.<p>
-OR-
- Collect your hardware inventory using the MOF Editor with a .MOF import file.<p>
-OR-
- Collect your hardware inventory using the SMS\DEF.MOF file (Configuration Manager 2007 only)
### WMI only: Running the PowerShell script to compile the .MOF file and to update security privileges
You need to set up your computers for data collection by running the provided PowerShell script (IETelemetrySetUp.ps1) to compile the .mof file and to update security privileges for the new WMI classes.
>**Important**<br>You must run this script if you’re using WMI as your data output. It's not necessary if you're using XML as your data output.
**To set up Enterprise Site Discovery**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 by by-passing the PowerShell execution policy, using this command: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1`. For more info, see [about Execution Policies](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=517460).
### WMI only: Set up your firewall for WMI data
If you choose to use WMI as your data output, you need to make sure that your WMI data can travel through your firewall for the domain. If you’re sure, you can skip this section; otherwise, follow these steps:
**To set up your firewall**
1. In **Control Panel**, click **System and Security**, and then click **Windows Firewall**.
2. In the left pane, click **Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall** and scroll down to check the box for **Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)**.
3. Restart your computer to start collecting your WMI data.
## Use PowerShell to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery
You can determine which zones or domains are used for data collection, using PowerShell. If you don’t want to use PowerShell, you can do this using Group Policy. For more info, see [Use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery](#use-group-policy-to-finish-setting-up-enterprise-site-discovery).
>**Important**<br>The .ps1 file updates turn on Enterprise Site Discovery and WMI collection for all users on a device.
- **Domain allow list.** If you have a domain allow list, a comma-separated list of domains that should have this feature turned on, you should use this process.
- **Zone allow list.** If you have a zone allow list, a comma-separated list of zones that should have this feature turned on, you should use this process.
**To set up data collection using a domain allow list**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1, using this command: `.\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 [other args] -SiteAllowList sharepoint.com,outlook.com,onedrive.com`.
>**Important**<br>Wildcards, like \*.microsoft.com, aren’t supported.
**To set up data collection using a zone allow list**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1, using this command: `.\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 [other args] -ZoneAllowList Computer,Intranet,TrustedSites,Internet,RestrictedSites`.
>**Important**<br>Only Computer, Intranet, TrustedSites, Internet, and RestrictedSites are supported.
## Use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery
You can use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery. If you don’t want to use Group Policy, you can do this using PowerShell. For more info, see [Use Powershell to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery](#use-powershell-to-finish-setting-up-enterprise-site-discovery).
>**Note**<br> All of the Group Policy settings can be used individually or as a group.
**To set up Enterprise Site Discovery using Group Policy**
- Open your Group Policy editor, and go to these new settings:
|Setting name and location |Description |Options |
|---------------------------|-------------|---------|
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery WMI output |Writes collected data to a WMI class, which can be aggregated using a client-management solution like Configuration Manager. |<ul><li>**On.** Turns on WMI recording.</li><li>**Off.** Turns off WMI recording.</li></ul> |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery XML output |Writes collected data to an XML file, which is stored in your specified location. |<ul><li>**XML file path.** Including this turns on XML recording.</li><li>**Blank.** Turns off XML recording.</li></ul> |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Limit Site Discovery output by Zone |Manages which zone can collect data. |To specify which zones can collect data, you must include a binary number that represents your selected zones, based on this order:<p>0 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>0 – Trusted Sites zone<br>0 – Local Intranet zone<br>0 – Local Machine zone<p>**Example 1:** Include only the Local Intranet zone<p>Binary representation: *00010*, based on:<p>0 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>0 – Trusted Sites zone<br>1 – Local Intranet zone<br>0 – Local Machine zone<p>**Example 2:** Include only the Restricted Sites, Trusted Sites, and Local Intranet zones<p>Binary representation: *10110*, based on:<p>1 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>1 – Trusted Sites zone<br>1 – Local Intranet zone<br>1 – Local Machine zone |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Limit Site Discovery output by domain |Manages which domains can collect data |To specify which domains can collect data, you must include your selected domains, one domain per line, in the provided box. It should look like:<p>microsoft.sharepoint.com<br>outlook.com<br>onedrive.com<br>timecard.contoso.com<br>LOBApp.contoso.com |
### Combining WMI and XML Group Policy settings
You can use both the WMI and XML settings individually or together:
**To turn off Enterprise Site Discovery**
|Setting name |Option |
|---------|---------|
|Turn on Site Discovery WMI output | Off |
|Turn on Site Discovery XML output | Blank |
**Turn on WMI recording only**

Your environment is now ready to collect your hardware inventory and review the sample reports.
## View the sample reports with your collected data
The sample reports, **Configuration Manager Report Sample – ActiveX.rdl** and **Configuration Manager Report Sample – Site Discovery.rdl**, work with System Center 2012, so you can review your collected data.
### Configuration Manager Report Sample – ActiveX.rdl
Gives you a list of all of the ActiveX-related sites visited by the client computer.
![ActiveX.rdl report, lists all ActiveX-related sites visited by the client computer.](images/configmgractivexreport.png)
### Configuration Manager Report Sample – Site Discovery.rdl
Gives you a list of all of the sites visited by the client computer.
![Site Discovery.rdl report, lists all websites visited by the client computer.](images/ie-site-discovery-sample-report.png)
## View the collected XML data
After the XML files are created, you can use your own solutions to extract and parse the data. The data will look like:
``` xml
<IETelemetry>
<IECountInfo>
<CrashCount>[dword]</CrashCount>
<HangCount>[dword]</HangCount>
<NavigationFailureCount>[dword]</NavigationFailureCount>
</IECountInfo>
<IEURLInfo>
<URL>[string]</URL>
<ActiveXGUID>
<GUID>[guid]</GUID>
</ActiveXGUID>
<DocModeReason>[dword]</DocModeReason>
<DocMode>[dword]</DocMode>
<NumberOfVisits>[dword]</NumberOfVisits>
<BrowserStateReason>[dword]</BrowserStateReason>
<Zone>[dword]</Zone>
<CrashCount>[dword]</CrashCount>
<HangCount>[dword]</HangCount>
<NavigationFailureCount>[dword]</NavigationFailureCount>
<Domain>[string]</Domain>
<MostRecentNavigationFailure>[dword]</MostRecentNavigationFailure>
</IEURLInfo>
<IEURLInfo>…</IEURLInfo>
<IEURLInfo>…</IEURLInfo>
</IETelemetry>
```
You can import this XML data into the correct version of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, automatically adding the included sites to your Enterprise Mode site list.
**To add your XML data to your Enterprise Mode site list**
1. Open the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **File**, and then click **Bulk add from file**.
![Enterprise Mode Site List Manager with Bulk add from file option.](images/bulkadd-emiesitelistmgr.png)
2. Go to your XML file to add the included sites to the tool, and then click **Open**.<br>Each site is validated and if successful, added to the global site list when you click **OK** to close the menu. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you can try to fix the issues or pick the site and click **Add to list** to ignore the validation problem. For more information about fixing validation problems, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-validation-problems-using-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
3. Click **OK** to close the **Bulk add sites to the list** menu.
## Turn off data collection on your client devices
After you’ve collected your data, you’ll need to turn Enterprise Site Discovery off.
**To stop collecting data, using PowerShell**
- On your client computer, start Windows PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run `IETelemetrySetUp.ps1`, using this command: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 –IEFeatureOff`.
>**Note**<br>Turning off data collection only disables the Enterprise Site Discovery feature – all data already written to WMI stays on your employee’s computer.
**To stop collecting data, using Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor, go to `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery WMI output`, and click **Off**.
2. Go to `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery XML output`, and clear the file path location.
### Delete already stored data from client computers
You can completely remove the data stored on your employee’s computers.
**To delete all existing data**
- On the client computer, start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run these four commands:
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IEURLInfo`
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IESystemInfo`
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IECountInfo`
- `Remove-Item -Path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\WMITelemetry'`

# Create a change request using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Employees assigned to the Requester role can create a change request. A change request is used to tell the Approvers and the Administrator that a website needs to be added or removed from the Enterprise Mode Site List. The employee can navigate to each stage of the process by using the workflow links provided at the top of each page of the portal.
> [!Important]
> Each Requester must have access to a test machine with Administrator rights, letting him or her get to the pre-production environment to make sure that the requested change is correct.
**To create a new change request**
1. The Requester (an employee that has been assigned the Requester role) signs into the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, and clicks **Create new request**.
The **Create new request** page appears.
2. Fill out the required fields, based on the group and the app, including:
- **Group name.** Select the name of your group from the dropdown box.
- **App name.** Type the name of the app you want to add, delete, or update in the Enterprise Mode Site List.
- **Search all apps.** If you can't remember the name of your app, you can click **Search all apps** and search the list.
- **Add new app.** If your app isn't listed, you can click **Add new app** to add it to the list.
- **Requested by.** Automatically filled in with your name.
- **Description.** Add descriptive info about the app.
- **Requested change.** Select whether you want to **Add to EMIE**, **Delete from EMIE**, or **Update to EMIE**.
- **Reason for request.** Select the best reason for why you want to update, delete, or add the app.
- **Business impact (optional).** An optional area where you can provide info about the business impact of this app and the change.
- **App location (URL).** The full URL location to the app, starting with https:// or https://.
- **App best viewed in.** Select the best browser experience for the app. This can be Internet Explorer 5 through Internet Explorer 11 or one of the IE7Enterprise or IE8Enterprise modes.
- **Is an x-ua tag used?** Select **Yes** or **No** whether an x-ua-compatible tag is used by the app. For more info about x-ua-compatible tags, see the topics in [Defining document compatibility](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/cc288325(v=vs.85).aspx).
4. Click **Save and continue** to save the request and get the app info sent to the pre-production environment site list for testing.
A message appears that the request was successful, including a **Request ID** number, saying that the change is being made to the pre-production environment site list.
5. The Requester gets an email with a batch script, that when run, configures their test machine for the pre-production environment, along with the necessary steps to make sure the changed info is correct.
- **If the change is correct.** The Requester asks the approvers to approve the change request by selecting **Successful** and clicking **Send for approval**.
- **If the change is incorrect.** The Requester can rollback the change in pre-production or ask for help from the Administrator.
## Next steps
After the change request is created, the Requester must make sure the suggested changes work in the pre-production environment. For these steps, see [Verify your changes using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](verify-changes-preprod-enterprise-mode-portal.md).

# Edit the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You can use Internet Explorer 11 and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to change whether page rendering should use Enterprise Mode or the default Internet Explorer browser configuration. You can also add, remove, or delete associated comments.
If you need to edit a lot of websites, you probably don’t want to do it one at a time. Instead, you can edit your saved XML or TXT file and add the sites back again. For information about how to do this, depending on your operating system and schema version, see [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) or [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
**To change how your page renders**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, double-click the site you want to change.
2. Change the comment or the compatibility mode option.
3. Click **Save** to validate your changes and to add the updated information to your site list.<br>
If your change passes validation, it’s added to the global site list. If the update doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the update or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway. For more information about fixing validation issues, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-validation-problems-using-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save to XML**, and save the updated file.<br>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).

## Enterprise Mode and the Enterprise Mode Site List XML file
The Enterprise Mode Site List is an XML document that specifies a list of sites, their compat mode, and their intended browser. Using [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=716853), you can automatically start a webpage using a specific browser. In the case of IE11, the webpage can also be launched in a specific compat mode, so it always renders correctly. Your employees can easily view this site list by typing _about:compat_ in either Microsoft Edge or IE11.
Starting with Windows 10, version 1511 (also known as the Anniversary Update), you can also [restrict IE11 to only the legacy web apps that need it](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2016/05/19/edge14-ie11-better-together/), automatically sending sites not included in the Enterprise Mode Site List to Microsoft Edge.
### Site list xml file
<!-- rework this entire paragraph -->
This is a view of the [raw EMIE v2 schema.xml file](https://gist.github.com/kypflug/9e9961de771d2fcbd86b#file-emie-v2-schema-xml). There are equivalent Enterprise Mode Site List policies for both [Microsoft Edge](/microsoft-edge/deploy/emie-to-improve-compatibility) and [Internet Explorer 11](/internet-explorer/ie11-deploy-guide/turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list). The Microsoft Edge list is used to determine which sites should open in IE11; while the IE11 list is used to determine the compat mode for a site, and which sites should open in Microsoft Edge. We recommend using one list for both browsers, where each policy points to the same XML file location.
```xml

### Enterprise Mode features
Enterprise Mode includes the following features:
- **Improved web app and website compatibility.** Through improved emulation, Enterprise Mode lets many legacy web apps run unmodified on IE11, supporting several site patterns that aren’t currently supported by existing document modes.
- **Tool-based management for website lists.** Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to add website domains and domain paths and to specify whether a site renders using Enterprise Mode.
Download the [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=716853) or the [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=394378), based on your operating system and schema.
- **Centralized control.** You can specify the websites or web apps to interpret using Enterprise Mode, through an XML file on a website or stored locally. Domains and paths within those domains can be treated differently, allowing granular control. Use Group Policy to let users turn Enterprise Mode on or off from the Tools menu and to decide whether the Enterprise browser profile appears on the Emulation tab of the F12 developer tools.
> [!Important]
> All centrally-made decisions override any locally-made choices.
- **Integrated browsing.** When Enterprise Mode is set up, users can browse the web normally, letting the browser change modes automatically to accommodate Enterprise Mode sites.
- **Data gathering.** You can configure Enterprise Mode to collect local override data, posting back to a named server. This lets you "crowd source" compatibility testing from key users; gathering their findings to add to your central site list.

# Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1) to create and update your Enterprise Mode site list for devices running the v.1 version of the schema, or the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) to create and update your Enterprise Mode site list for devices running the v.2 version of the schema. We strongly recommend moving to the new schema, v.2. For more info, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md).
If you don't want to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you also have the option to update your XML schema using Notepad, or any other XML-editing app.
## Enterprise Mode schema v.1 example
The following is an example of the Enterprise Mode schema v.1. This schema can run on devices running Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
**Important**<br>
Make sure that you don't specify a protocol when adding your URLs. Using a URL like `<domain>contoso.com</domain>` automatically applies to both https://contoso.com and https://contoso.com.
``` xml
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">www.cpandl.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">www.woodgrovebank.com</domain>
<domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true">adatum.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">relecloud.com
<path exclude="false">/about</path>
</domain>
<domain exclude="false">fabrikam.com
<path exclude="true">/products</path>
</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain>contoso.com
<path docMode="7">/travel</path>
</domain>
<domain>fabrikam.com
<path docMode="7">/products</path>
</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
### Schema elements
This table includes the elements used by the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Element |Description |Supported browser |
|---------|---------|---------|
|&lt;rules&gt; | Root node for the schema.<br>**Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br> &lt;/rules&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;emie&gt; |The parent node for the Enterprise Mode section of the schema. All &lt;domain&gt; entries will have either IE8 Enterprise Mode or IE7 Enterprise Mode applied. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; <br> </pre><p> **or** <br> For IPv6 ranges: <pre class="syntax"><br>&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;[10.122.34.99]:8080&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; </pre><p> <br> **or**<br> For IPv4 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;[10.122.34.99]:8080&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;docMode&gt; |The parent node for the document mode section of the section. All &lt;domain&gt; entries will get IE5 - IE11 document modes applied. If there's a &lt;domain&gt; element in the docMode section that uses the same value as a &lt;domain&gt; element in the emie section, the emie element is applied. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;docmode&gt; <br> &lt;domain docMode="7"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/docmode&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 |
|&lt;domain&gt; |A unique entry added for each site you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The first &lt;domain&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;domain&gt; elements that use the same value for the section. You can use port numbers for this element. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com:8080&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;path&gt; |A unique entry added for each path under a domain you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The &lt;path&gt; element is a child of the &lt;domain&gt; element. Additionally, the first &lt;path&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;path&gt; elements in the schema section.<br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path exclude="true"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><p> <br> Where [https://fabrikam.com](https://fabrikam.com) doesn't use IE8 Enterprise Mode, but [https://fabrikam.com/products](https://fabrikam.com/products) does. |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
### Schema attributes
This table includes the attributes used by the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Attribute|Description|Supported browser|
|--- |--- |--- |
|&lt;version&gt;|Specifies the version of the Enterprise Mode Site List. This attribute is supported for the &lt;rules&gt; element.|Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|&lt;exclude&gt;|Specifies the domain or path that is excluded from getting the behavior applied. This attribute is supported on the <domain> and <path> elements.<br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path exclude="true"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt; </pre><p> Where [https://fabrikam.com](https://fabrikam.com) doesn't use IE8 Enterprise Mode, but [https://fabrikam.com/products](https://fabrikam.com/products) does.|Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|&lt;docMode&gt;|Specifies the document mode to apply. This attribute is only supported on &lt;domain&gt; or &lt;path&gt;elements in the &lt;docMode&gt; section.<br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;docMode&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path docMode="7"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/docMode&gt;|Internet Explorer 11|
### Using Enterprise Mode and document mode together
If you want to use both Enterprise Mode and document mode together, you need to be aware that &lt;emie&gt; entries override &lt;docMode&gt; entries for the same domain.
For example, say you want all of the sites in the contoso.com domain to open using IE8 Enterprise Mode, except test.contoso.com, which needs to open in document mode 11. Because Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document mode, if you want test.contoso.com to open using document mode, you'll need to explicitly add it as an exclusion to the &lt;emie&gt; parent node.
```xml
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">test.contoso.com</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain docMode="11">test.contoso.com</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
### What not to include in your schema
We recommend that you not add any of the following items to your schema because they can make your compatibility list behave in unexpected ways:
- Don’t use protocols. For example, `https://`, `https://`, or custom protocols. They break parsing.
- Don’t use wildcards.
- Don’t use query strings, ampersands break parsing.
## How to use trailing slashes
You can use trailing slashes at the path-level, but not at the domain-level:
- **Domain-level.** Don’t add trailing slashes to a domain, it breaks parsing.
- **Path-level.** Adding a trailing slash to a path means that the path ends at that point. By not adding a trailing slash, the rule applies to all of the sub-paths.
**Example**
``` xml
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com
<path exclude="false">/about/</path>
</domain>
```
In this example, `contoso.com/about/careers` will use the default version of Internet Explorer, even though `contoso.com/about/` uses Enterprise Mode.
## How to target specific sites
If you want to target specific sites in your organization.
|Targeted site |Example |Explanation |
|--------------|--------|------------|
|You can specify subdomains in the domain tag. |<code>&lt;docMode&gt;<br>&lt;domain docMode="5"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;domain docMode="9"&gt;info.contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;docMode&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com uses document mode 5.</li><li>info.contoso.com uses document mode 9.</li><li>test.contoso.com also uses document mode 5.</li></ul>|
|You can specify exact URLs by listing the full path. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;bing.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;emie&gt;</code>|<ul><li>bing.com uses IE8 Enterprise Mode.</li><li>contoso.com uses IE7 Enterprise Mode.</li></ul>|
|You can nest paths underneath domains. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;contoso.com<br>&lt;path exclude="false"&gt;/about&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;path exclude="true"&gt;<br>/about/business&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com will use the default version of IE.</li><li>contoso.com/about and everything underneath that node will load in Enterprise Mode, except contoso.com/about/business, which will load in the default version of IE.</li></ul> |
|You can’t add a path underneath a path. The file will still be parsed, but the sub-path will be ignored. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;contoso.com<br>&lt;path&gt;/about<br>&lt;path exclude="true"&gt;/business&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com will use the default version of IE.</li><li>contoso.com/about and everything underneath that node will load in Enterprise Mode, including contoso.com/about/business because the last rule is ignored.</li></ul> |

# Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to create and update your site list for devices running Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10, using the version 2.0 (v.2) of the Enterprise Mode schema. If you don't want to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you also have the option to update your XML schema using Notepad, or any other XML-editing app.
**Important**<br>
If you're running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 and you've been using the version 1.0 (v.1) of the schema, you can continue to do so, but you won't get the benefits that come with the updated schema. For info about the v.1 schema, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
## Enterprise Mode schema v.2 updates
Because of the schema changes, you can't combine the old version (v.1) with the new version (v.2) of the schema. If you look at your XML file, you can tell which version you're using by:
- &lt;rules&gt;. If your schema root node includes this key, you're using the v.1 version of the schema.
- &lt;site-list&gt;. If your schema root node includes this key, you're using the v.2 version of the schema.
You can continue to use the v.1 version of the schema on Windows 10, but you won't have the benefits of the new v.2 version schema updates and new features. Additionally, saving the v.1 version of the schema in the new Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) automatically updates the file to use the v.2 version of the schema.
### Enterprise Mode v.2 schema example
The following is an example of the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema.
**Important**<br>
Make sure that you don't specify a protocol when adding your URLs. Using a URL like `<url="contoso.com">`, automatically applies to both https://contoso.com and https://contoso.com.

### Updated schema elements
This table includes the elements used by the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Element |Description |Supported browser |
|---------|---------|---------|
|&lt;site-list&gt; |A new root node with this text is using the updated v.2 version of the schema. It replaces &lt;rules&gt;. <br> **Example** <br> <pre class="syntax">&lt;site-list version="205"&gt;<br> &lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br> &lt;/site&gt;<br>&lt;/site-list&gt;</pre> | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;site&gt; |A unique entry added for each site you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The first &lt;site&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;site&gt; elements that use the same value for the &lt;url&gt; element. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;default&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre> <br> **or** For IPv4 ranges: <br> <pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="10.122.34.99:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> <br> **or** For IPv6 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="[10.122.34.99]:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> <br> You can also use the self-closing version, &lt;url="contoso.com" /&gt;, which also sets:<ul><li>&lt;compat-mode&gt;default&lt;/compat-mode&gt;</li><li>&lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;</li>| Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;compat-mode&gt; |A child element that controls what compatibility setting is used for specific sites or domains. This element is only supported in IE11. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"><br>&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre> **or** <br> For IPv4 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="10.122.34.99:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> **or** For IPv6 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="[10.122.34.99]:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> Where<ul><li>**IE8Enterprise.** Loads the site in IE8 Enterprise Mode.<br>This element is required for sites included in the **EmIE** section of the v.1 schema and is needed to load in IE8 Enterprise Mode.</li><p><li>**IE7Enterprise.** Loads the site in IE7 Enterprise Mode.<br>This element is required for sites included in the **EmIE** section of the v.1 schema and is needed to load in IE7 Enterprise Mode<p>**Important**<br>This tag replaces the combination of the `"forceCompatView"="true"` attribute and the list of sites specified in the EmIE section of the v.1 version of the schema.<li>**IE<i>[x]</i>**. Where <i>[x]</i> is the document mode number into which the site loads.<li>**Default or not specified.** Loads the site using the default compatibility mode for the page. In this situation, X-UA-compatible meta tags or HTTP headers are honored.</li> |Internet Explorer 11 |
|&lt;open-in&gt; |A child element that controls what browser is used for sites. This element supports the **Open in IE11** or **Open in Microsoft Edge** experiences, for devices running Windows 10.<br> **Examples**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt; <br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre><p> <br> Where<ul><li><b>IE11.</b> Opens the site in IE11, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.<li><b>MSEdge.</b> Opens the site in Microsoft Edge, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.<li><b>None or not specified.</b> Opens in whatever browser the employee chooses.</li> | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
### Updated schema attributes
The &lt;url&gt; attribute, as part of the &lt;site&gt; element in the v.2 version of the schema, replaces the &lt;domain&gt; element from the v.1 version of the schema.
|Attribute|Description|Supported browser|
|---------|---------|---------|
|allow-redirect|A boolean attribute of the <open-in> element that controls the behavior for redirected sites. Setting this attribute to "true" indicates that the site will open in IE11 or Microsoft Edge even if the site is navigated to as part of a HTTP or meta refresh redirection chain. Omitting the attribute is equivalent to "false" (sites in redirect chain will not open in another browser).<br>**Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com/travel"&gt;<br> &lt;open-in allow-redirect="true"&gt;IE11 &lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt; </pre> In this example, if [https://contoso.com/travel](https://contoso.com/travel) is encountered in a redirect chain in Microsoft Edge, it will be opened in Internet Explorer.</li>| Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|version |Specifies the version of the Enterprise Mode Site List. This attribute is supported for the &lt;site-list&gt; element. | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|url|Specifies the URL (and port number using standard port conventions) to which the child elements apply. The URL can be a domain, sub-domain, or any path URL.<br> **Note**<br> Make sure that you don't specify a protocol. Using &lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt; applies to both [https://contoso.com](https://contoso.com) and [https://contoso.com](https://contoso.com). <br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt; <br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre>In this example, going to [https://contoso.com:8080](https://contoso.com:8080) using Microsoft Edge, causes the site to open in IE11 and load in IE8 Enterprise Mode. | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
### Deprecated attributes
These v.1 version schema attributes have been deprecated in the v.2 version of the schema:
|Deprecated attribute|New attribute|Replacement example|
|--- |--- |--- |
|&lt;forceCompatView&gt;|&lt;compat-mode>|Replace &lt;forceCompatView="true"> with &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE7Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode>|
|&lt;docMode&gt;|&lt;compat-mode&gt;|Replace &lt;docMode="IE5"&gt; with &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE5&lt;/compat-mode&gt;|
|&lt;doNotTransition&gt;|&lt;open-in&gt;|Replace:<br> &lt;doNotTransition="true"&gt; with &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;|
|&lt;domain&gt; and &lt;path&gt;|&lt;site&gt;|Replace:<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre>With:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"/&gt; <br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre>**-AND-** <br>Replace:<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;contoso.com <br> &lt;path exclude="false" forceCompatView="true"&gt;/about&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><br> With:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com/about"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE7Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;|
While the old, replaced attributes aren't supported in the v.2 version of the schema, they'll continue to work in the v.1 version of the schema. If, however, you're using the v.2 version of the schema and these attributes are still there, the v.2 version schema takes precedence. We don’t recommend combining the two schemas, and instead recommend that you move to the v.2 version of the schema to take advantage of the new features.
**Important**<br>
Saving your v.1 version of the file using the new Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) automatically updates the XML to the new v.2 version of the schema.
### What not to include in your schema
We recommend that you not add any of the following items to your schema because they can make your compatibility list behave in unexpected ways:
- Don’t use protocols. For example, https://, https://, or custom protocols. They break parsing.
- Don’t use wildcards.
- Don’t use query strings, ampersands break parsing.

## Enterprise Mode Site List Manager and the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal tools
You can build and manage your Enterprise Mode Site List is by using any generic text editor. However, we’ve also provided a couple tools that can make that process even easier.
### Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
This tool helps you create error-free XML documents with simple n+1 versioning and URL verification. We recommend using this tool if your site list is relatively small. For more info about this tool, see the [Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](use-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md) topics.
There are 2 versions of this tool, both supported on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10:
- [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=42501). This is an older version of the schema that you must use if you want to create and update your Enterprise Mode Site List for devices running the v.1 version of the schema.
We strongly recommend moving to the new schema, v.2. For more info, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md).
- [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=49974). The updated version of the schema, including new functionality. You can use this version of the schema to create and update your Enterprise Mode Site List for devices running the v.2 version of the schema.
If you open a v.1 version of your Enterprise Mode Site List using this version, it will update the schema to v.2, automatically. For more info, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
If your list is too large to add individual sites, or if you have more than one person managing the site list, we recommend using the Enterprise Site List Portal.
### Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
The [Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/enterprise-mode-site-list-portal) is an open-source web tool on GitHub that allows you to manage your Enterprise Mode Site List, hosted by the app, with multiple users. The portal is designed to use IIS and a SQL Server backend, leveraging Active Directory (AD) for employee management.
In addition to all the functionality of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager tool, the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal helps you:
- Manage site lists from any device supporting Windows 7 or greater.
- Submit change requests.
- Operate offline through an on-premise solution.
- Provide role-based governance.
- Test configuration settings before releasing to a live environment.
Updates to your site list are made by submitting new change requests, which are then approved by a designated group of people, put into a pre-production environment for testing, and then deployed immediately, or scheduled for deployment later.
Because the tool is open-source, the source code is readily available for examination and experimentation. We encourage you to [fork the code, submit pull requests, and send us your feedback](https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/enterprise-mode-site-list-portal)! For more info about the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, see the [Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](use-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md) topics.

## Enterprise Mode Site List Manager versions
There are currently two versions of the Enterprise Site List Manager, both based on your schema and operating system. Download the [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=716853) or the [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=394378) tool, based on your operating system.

# Enterprise Mode for Microsoft Edge
Enterprise Mode, a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 devices, lets websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Internet Explorer 8. Running in this mode helps to avoid many of the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.
Many customers identify web app compatibility as a significant cost to upgrading because web apps need to be tested and upgraded before adopting a new browser. The improved compatibility provided by Enterprise Mode can help give customers the confidence to upgrade to IE11, letting customers benefit from modern web standards, increased performance, improved security, and better reliability.

# Export your Enterprise Mode site list from the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After you create your Enterprise Mode site list in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you can export the contents to an Enterprise Mode (.EMIE) file. This file includes all of your URLs, including your compatibility mode selections and should be stored somewhere safe. If your list gets deleted by mistake you can easily import this file and return everything back to when this file was last saved.
**Important**<br> 
This file is not intended for distribution to your managed devices. Instead, it is only for transferring data and comments from one manager to another. For example, if one administrator leaves and passes the existing data to another administrator. Internet Explorer doesn’t read this file.
**To export your compatibility list**
1. On the **File** menu of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **Export**.
2. Export the file to your selected location. For example, `C:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\sites.emie`.

# Schedule approved change requests for production using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After a change request is approved, the original Requester can schedule the change for the production environment. The change can be immediate or set for a future time.
**To schedule an immediate change**
1. The Requester logs onto the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal and clicks **In Progress** from the left pane.
2. The Requester clicks the **Approved** status for the change request.
The **Schedule changes** page appears.
3. The Requester clicks **Now**, and then clicks **Save**.
The update is scheduled to immediately update the production environment, and an email is sent to the Requester. After the update finishes, the Requester is asked to verify the changes.
**To schedule the change for a different day or time**
1. The Requester logs onto the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal and clicks **In Progress** from the left pane.
2. The Requester clicks the **Approved** status for the change request.
The **Schedule changes** page appears.
3. The Requester clicks **Schedule**, sets the **Preferred day**, **Preferred start time**, and the **Preferred end time**, and then clicks **Save**.
The update is scheduled to update the production environment on that day and time and an email is sent to the Requester. After the update finishes, the Requester will be asked to verify the changes.
## Next steps
After the update to the production environment completes, the Requester must again test the change. If the testing succeeds, the Requester can sign off on the change request. If the testing fails, the Requester can contact the Administrator group for more help. For the production environment testing steps, see the [Verify the change request update in the production environment using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](verify-changes-production-enterprise-mode-portal.md) topic.

# Set up Enterprise Mode logging and data collection
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Using Group Policy, you can turn on Enterprise Mode for Internet Explorer and then you can turn on local user control using the **Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu** setting, located in the `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer` category path. After you turn this setting on, your users can turn on Enterprise Mode locally, from the IE **Tools** menu.
![enterprise mode option on the tools menu.](images/ie-emie-toolsmenu.png)
The **Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu** setting also lets you decide where to send the user reports (as a URL). We recommend creating a custom HTTP port 81 to let your incoming user information go to a dedicated site. A dedicated site is important so you can quickly pick out the Enterprise Mode traffic from your other website traffic.
![group policy to turn on enterprise mode.](images/ie-emie-grouppolicy.png)
Getting these reports lets you find out about sites that aren’t working right, so you can add them to your Enterprise Mode site list, without having to locate them all yourself. For more information about creating and using a site list, see the [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) or the [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) topic, based on your operating system.
## Using ASP to collect your data
When you turn logging on, you need a valid URL that points to a server that can be listened to for updates to a user’s registry key. This means you need to set up an endpoint server for the incoming POST messages, which are sent every time the user turns Enterprise Mode on or off from the **Tools** menu.
**To set up an endpoint server**
1. Configure an IIS server to work with your Enterprise Mode data collection process. If you’re unsure how to set up IIS, see the [IIS installation webpage](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=507609).
2. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) and turn on the ASP components from the **Add Roles and Features Wizard**, **Server Roles** page.<p>
This lets you create an ASP form that accepts the incoming POST messages.
3. Open the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, click **Bindings**, highlight **Port 81**, click **Edit**, and then change the website information to point to Port 81 so it matches your custom-created port.
![IIS Manager, editing website bindings.](images/ie-emie-editbindings.png)
4. Open the **Logging** feature, pick **W3C** for the format, and click **Select Fields** to open the **W3C Logging Fields** box.
![IIS Manager, setting logging options.](images/ie-emie-logging.png)
5. Change the WC3 logging fields to include only the **Date**, **Client IP**, **User Name**, and **URI Query** standard fields, and then click **OK**.<p>
Using only these fields keeps the log file simple, giving you the date, client IP address, and the website URI information for any site changed by your users.
6. Apply these changes to your default website and close the IIS Manager.
7. Put your EmIE.asp file into the root of the web server, using this command:
```
<% @ LANGUAGE=javascript %>
<%
Response.AppendToLog(" ;" + Request.Form("URL") + " ;" + Request.Form("EnterpriseMode"));
%>
```
This code logs your POST fields to your IIS log file, where you can review all of the collected data.
### IIS log file information
This is what your log files will look like after you set everything up and at least one of your users has turned on Enterprise Mode locally from the **Tools** menu. You can see the URL of the problematic website and client IP address of the user that turned on Enterprise Mode.
![Enterprise Mode log file.](images/ie-emie-logfile.png)
## Using the GitHub sample to collect your data
Microsoft has created the [EMIE-Data-Collection_Sample](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=507401) that shows how to collect your Enterprise Mode reports. This sample only shows how to collect data, it doesn’t show how to aggregate the data into your Enterprise Mode site list.<p>
This sample starts with you turning on Enterprise Mode and logging (either through Group Policy, or by manually setting the EnterpriseMode registry key) so that your users can use Enterprise Mode locally. For the steps to do this, go to [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).
**Note**<br>If you decide to manually change the registry key, you can change the **Enable** setting to `[deployment url]/api/records/`, which automatically sends your reports to this page.
### Setting up, collecting, and viewing reports
For logging, you’re going to need a valid URL that points to a server that can be listened to for updates to a user’s registry key. This means you need to set up an endpoint server for the incoming POST messages, which are sent every time the user turns Enterprise Mode on or off from the **Tools** menu. These POST messages go into your database, aggregating the report data by URL, giving you the total number of reports where users turned on Enterprise Mode, the total number of reports where users turned off Enterprise Mode, and the date of the last report.
**To set up the sample**
1. Set up a server to collect your Enterprise Mode information from your users.
2. Go to the Internet Explorer/[EMIE-Data_Collection_Sample](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=507401) page on GitHub and tap or click the **Download ZIP** button to download the complete project.
3. Open Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 with Update 2, and then open the PhoneHomeSample.sln file.
4. On the **Build** menu, tap or click **Build Solution**.<p>
The required packages are automatically downloaded and included in the solution.
**To set up your endpoint server**
1. Right-click on the name, PhoneHomeSample, and click **Publish**.
![Visual Studio, Publish menu.](images/ie-emie-publishsolution.png)
2. In the **Publish Web** wizard, pick the publishing target and options that work for your organization.
**Important**<br>
Make sure you have a database associated with your publishing target. Otherwise, your reports won’t be collected and you’ll have problems deploying the website. 
![Visual Studio, Publish Web wizard.](images/ie-emie-publishweb.png)
After you finish the publishing process, you need to test to make sure the app deployed successfully.
**To test, deploy, and use the app**
1. Open a registry editor on the computer where you deployed the app, go to the `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode` key, and change the **Enable** string to:
``` "Enable"="https://<deploy_URL>/api/records/"
```
Where `<deploy_URL>` points to your deployment URL.
2. After you’re sure your deployment works, you can deploy it to your users using one of the following:
- Turn on the **Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu** Group Policy setting, putting your `<deploy_URL>` information into the **Options** box.
- Deploy the registry key in Step 3 using System Center or other management software.
3. Get your users to visit websites, turning Enterprise Mode on or off locally, as necessary.
**To view the report results**
- Go to `https://<deploy_URL>/List` to see the report results.<p>
If you’re already on the webpage, you’ll need to refresh the page to see the results.
![Enterprise Mode Result report with details.](images/ie-emie-reportwdetails.png)
### Troubleshooting publishing errors
If you have errors while you’re publishing your project, you should try to update your packages.
**To update your packages**
1. From the **Tools** menu of Microsoft Visual Studio, click **NuGet Package Manager**, and click **Manage NuGet Packages for Solution**.
![Nuget Package Manager for package updates.](images/ie-emie-packageupdate.png)
2. Click **Updates** on the left side of the tool, and click the **Update All** button.<p>
You may need to do some additional package cleanup to remove older package versions.

# Set up the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
The Enterprise Mode Site List Portal is an open-source web tool on GitHub that allows you to manage your Enterprise Mode Site List, hosted by the app, with multiple users. The portal is designed to use IIS and a SQL Server backend, leveraging Active Directory (AD) for employee management. Updates to your site list are made by submitting new change requests, which are then approved by a designated group of people, put into a pre-production environment for testing, and then deployed immediately, or scheduled for deployment later.
Before you can begin using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, you must set up your environment.
## Step 1 - Copy the deployment folder to the web server
You must download the deployment folder (**EMIEWebPortal/**), which includes all of the source code for the website, from the [Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/enterprise-mode-site-list-portal) site to your web server.
**To download the source code**
1. Download the deployment folder from the [Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/enterprise-mode-site-list-portal) source code to your web server.
2. Install the Node.js® package manager, [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/).
> [!NOTE]
> You need to install the npm package manager to replace all the third-party libraries we removed to make the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal open-source.
3. Open File Explorer and then open the **EMIEWebPortal/** folder.
4. Press and hold **Shift**, right-click the window, then click **Open PowerShell window here**.
5. Type _npm i_ into the command prompt, then press **Enter**.
Installs the npm package manager and bulk adds all the third-party libraries back into your codebase.
6. Go back up a directory, open the solution file **EMIEWebPortal.sln** in Visual Studio, and then build the entire solution.
7. Copy the contents of the **EMIEWebPortal/** folder to a dedicated folder on your file system. For example, _D:\EMIEWebApp_. In a later step, you'll designate this folder as your website in the IIS Manager.
## Step 2 - Create the Application Pool and website, by using IIS
Create a new Application Pool and the website, by using the IIS Manager.
**To create a new Application Pool**
1. In IIS Manager, expand your local computer in the **Connections** pane, right-click **Application Pools**, then click **Add Application Pool**.
The **Add Application Pool** box appears.
2. In the **Add Application Pool** box, enter the following info:
- **Name.** Type the name of your new application pool. For example, _EMIEWebAppPool_.
- **.NET CLR version.** Pick the version of .NET CLR used by your application pool from the drop-down box. It must be version 4.0 or higher.
- **Managed pipeline mode.** Pick **Integrated** from the drop-down box. IIS uses the integrated IIS and ASP.NET request-processing pipeline for managed content.
3. Click **OK**.
4. Select your new application pool from the **Application Pool** pane, click **Advanced Settings** from the **Edit Application Pool** area of the **Actions** pane.
The **Advanced Settings** box appears.
5. Make sure your **Identity** value is **ApplicationPoolIdentity**, click **OK**, and then close the box.
6. Open File Explorer and go to your deployment directory, created in Step 1. For example, _D:\EMIEWebApp_.
7. Right-click on the directory, click **Properties**, and then click the **Security** tab.
8. Add your new application pool to the list (for example, _IIS AppPool\EMIEWebAppPool_) with **Full control access**, making sure the location searches the local computer.
9. Add **Everyone** to the list with **Read & execute access**.
**To create the website**
1. In IIS Manager, expand your local computer in the **Connections** pane, right-click **Sites**, then click **Add Website**.
The **Add Website** box appears.
2. In the **Add Website** box, type the name of your website into the **Site name** box. For example, _EMIEWebApp_, and then click **Select**.
The **Select Application Pool** box appears.
4. Pick the name of the application pool created earlier in this step, and then click **OK**. For example, _EMIEWebAppPool_.
5. In the **Physical path** box, browse to your folder that contains your deployment directory. For example, _D:\EMIEWebApp_.
6. Set up your **Binding**, including your **Binding Type**, **IP address**, and **Port**, as appropriate for your organization.
7. Clear the **Start Website immediately** check box, and then click **OK**.
8. In IIS Manager, expand your local computer, and then double-click your new website. For example, _EMIEWebApp_.
The **<<i>website_name</i>> Home** pane appears.
9. Double-click the **Authentication** icon, right-click on **Windows Authentication**, and then click **Enable**.
> [!NOTE]
> You must also make sure that **Anonymous Authentication** is marked as **Enabled**.
10. Return to the **<<i>website_name</i>> Home** pane, and double-click the **Connection Strings** icon.
11. Open the **LOBMergedEntities Connection String** to edit:
- **Data source.** Type the name of your local computer.
- **Initial catalog.** The name of your database.
> [!NOTE]
> Step 3 of this topic provides the steps to create your database.
## Step 3 - Create and prep your database
Create a SQL Server database and run our custom query to create the Enterprise Mode Site List tables.
**To create and prep your database**
1. Start SQL Server Management Studio.
2. Open **Object Explorer** and then connect to an instance of the SQL Server Database Engine.
3. Expand the instance, right-click on **Databases**, and then click **New Database**.
4. Type a database name. For example, _EMIEDatabase_.
5. Leave all default values for the database files, and then click **OK**.
6. Open the **DatabaseScripts/Create DB Tables/1_CreateEMIETables.sql** query file, located in the deployment directory.
7. Replace the database name placeholder with the database name you created earlier. For example, _EMIEDatabase_.
8. Run the query.
## Step 4 - Map your Application Pool to a SQL Server role
Map your ApplicationPoolIdentity to your database, adding the db_owner role.
**To map your ApplicationPoolIdentity to a SQL Server role**
1. Start SQL Server Management Studio and connect to your database.
2. Expand the database instance and then open the server-level **Security** folder.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Make sure you open the **Security** folder at the server level and not for the database.
3. Right-click **Logins**, and then click **New Login**.
The **Login-New** dialog box appears.
4. Type the following into the **Login name** box, based on your server instance type:
- **Local SQL Server instance.** If you have a local SQL Server instance, where IIS and SQL Server are on the same server, type the name of your Application Pool. For example, _IIS AppPool\EMIEWebAppPool_.
- **Remote SQL Server instance.** If you have a remote SQL Server instance, where IIS and SQL Server are on different servers, type `Domain\ServerName$`.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Don't click **Search** in the **Login name** box. Login name searches will resolve to a ServerName\AppPool Name account and SQL Server Management Studio won't be able to resolve the account's virtual Security ID (SID).
5. Click **User Mapping** from the **Select a page** pane, click the checkbox for your database (for example, _EMIEDatabase_) from the **Users mapped to this login** pane, and then click **db_owner** from the list of available roles in the **Database role membership** pane.
6. Click **OK**.
## Step 5 - Restart the Application Pool and website
Using the IIS Manager, you must restart both your Application Pool and your website.
**To restart your Application Pool and website**
1. In IIS Manager, expand your local computer in the **Connections** pane, select your website, then click **Restart** from the **Manage Website** pane.
2. In the **Connections** pane, select your Application Pool, and then click **Recycle** from the **Application Pool Tasks** pane.
## Step 6 - Registering as an administrator
After you've created your database and website, you'll need to register yourself (or another employee) as an administrator for the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal.
**To register as an administrator**
1. Open Microsoft Edge and type your website URL into the Address bar. For example, https://emieportal:8085.
2. Click **Register now**.
3. Type your name or alias into the **Email** box, making sure it matches the info in the drop-down box.
4. Click **Administrator** from the **Role** box, and then click **Save**.
5. Append your website URL with `/#/EMIEAdminConsole` in the Address bar to go to your administrator console. For example, https://emieportal:8085/#/EMIEAdminConsole.
A dialog box appears, prompting you for the system user name and password. The default user name is EMIEAdmin and the default password is Admin123. We strongly recommend that you change the password by using the **Change password** link as soon as you're done with your first visit.
6. Select your name from the available list, and then click **Activate**.
7. Go to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal Home page and sign in.
## Step 7 - Configure the SMTP server and port for email notification
After you've set up the portal, you need to configure your SMTP server and port for email notifications from the system.
**To set up your SMTP server and port for emails**
1. Open Visual Studio, and then open the web.config file from your deployment directory.
2. Update the SMTP server and port info with your info, using this format:
```
<add key="host" value="SMTPHOST.corp.contoso.com"/>
<add key="port" value="2500"/>
```
3. Open the **Settings** page in the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, and then update the email account and password info.
## Step 8 - Register the scheduler service
Register the EMIEScheduler tool and service for production site list changes.
**To register the scheduler service**
1. Open File Explorer and go to EMIEWebPortal.SchedulerService\EMIEWebPortal.SchedulerService in your deployment directory, and then copy the **App_Data**, **bin**, and **Logs** folders to a separate folder. For example, C:\EMIEService\.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you can't find the **bin** and **Logs** folders, you probably haven't built the Visual Studio solution. Building the solution creates the folders and files.
2. In Visual Studio start the Developer Command Prompt as an administrator, and then change the directory to the location of the InstallUtil.exe file. For example, _C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319_.
3. Run the command, `InstallUtil "<path_to_service>"`. For example, _InstallUtil "C:\EMIEService\bin\Debug\EMIEWebPortal.SchedulerService.exe"._
You'll be asked for your user name and password for the service.
4. Open the **Run** command, type `Services.msc`, and then start the EMIEScheduler service.

# Turn off Enterprise Mode
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
It’s important that you test the sites you’re adding, or considering removing, from your Enterprise Mode site list. To make this testing easier, you can turn off the site list or the entire Enterprise Mode functionality. For example, you might have an intranet site on your list that you’ve upgraded to be compatible with the new web standards . If you test the site while the site list is active, Internet Explorer 11 will automatically switch to Enterprise Mode. By turning off the site list, you can see what the page actually looks like and decide whether to remove it from your site list.
In addition, if you no longer want your users to be able to turn Enterprise Mode on locally, you can remove Enterprise Mode from the local **Tools** menu.
**Important**<br>
Turning off both of these features turns off Enterprise Mode for your company. Turning off Enterprise Mode also causes any websites included in your employee’s manual site lists to not appear in Enterprise Mode.
  **To turn off the site list using Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor, like Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).
2. Go to the **Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list** setting, and then click **Disabled**.<p>
Enterprise Mode will no longer look for the site list, effectively turning off Enterprise Mode. However, if you previously turned on local control for your employees, Enterprise Mode will still be available from the **Tools** menu. You need to turn that part of the functionality off separately.
**To turn off local control using Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor, like Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).
2. Go to the **Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu** setting, and then click **Disable**.
3. Enterprise Mode no longer shows up on the **Tools** menu for your employees. However, if you are still using an Enterprise Mode site list, all of the globally listed sites will still appear in Enterprise Mode. If you want to turn off all of Enterprise Mode, you will need to also turn off the site list functionality.
**To turn off the site list using the registry**
1. Open a registry editor, such as regedit.exe.
2. Go to `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode`, and then delete the **SiteList** value.<p>
You can also use HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, depending whether you want to turn off the Enterprise Mode site list for users or for computers.
3. Close all and restart all instances of Internet Explorer.<p>
IE11 stops looking at the site list for rendering instructions. However, Enterprise Mode is still available to your users locally (if it was turned on).
**To turn off local control using the registry**
1. Open a registry editor, such as regedit.exe.
2. Go `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode`, and then delete the **Enable** value.<p>
You can also use HKEY_CURRENT_USER, depending whether you want to turn off Enterprise Mode for users or for computers.
3. Close and restart all instances of IE.<p>
Enterprise Mode is no longer a user option on the **Tools** menu in IE11. However, IE11 still looks at the site list (if it was turned on).

Before you can use a site list with Enterprise Mode, you must turn the functionality on and set up the system for centralized control. By allowing
centralized control, you can create one global list of websites that render using Enterprise Mode. Approximately 65 seconds after Internet Explorer 11 starts, it looks for a properly formatted site list. If a new site list if found, with a different version number than the active list, IE11 loads and uses the newer version. After the initial check, IE11 won’t look for an updated list again until you restart the browser.
> [!NOTE]
> We recommend that you store and download your website list from a secure web server (https://), to help protect against data tampering. After the list is downloaded, it's stored locally on your employees' computers so if the centralized file location is unavailable, they can still use Enterprise Mode.
**Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor and go to the **Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Microsoft Edge\\Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List** setting.<p>Turning this setting on also requires you to create and store a site list.
<!--
![Local Group Policy Editor for using a site list.](../edge/images/config-enterprise-site-list.png)
-->
2. Click **Enabled**, and then in the **Options** area, type the location to your site list.
3. Refresh your policy and then view the affected sites in Microsoft Edge.<p>The site shows a message in Microsoft Edge, saying that the page needs IE. At the same time, the page opens in IE11; in a new frame if it's not yet running, or in a new tab if it is.
**Registry**
All of your managed devices must have access to this location if you want them to be able to access and use Enterprise Mode and your site list.
1. **To turn on Enterprise Mode for all users on the PC:** Open the registry editor and go to `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Main\EnterpriseMode`.
2. Edit the `SiteList` registry key to point to where you want to keep your Enterprise Mode site list file.<p>For example:
<!--
![Enterprise mode with site list in the registry.](../edge/images/enterprise-mode-value-data.png) -->
- **HTTPS location:** `"SiteList"="https://localhost:8080/sites.xml"`
- **Local network:** `"SiteList"="\\network\shares\sites.xml"`
- **Local file:** `"SiteList"="file:///c:\\Users\\<user>\\Documents\\testList.xml"`
> **Example:**
>> _Web URL_ https://localhost:8080/EnterpriseMode.xml
>>
>> _Network Share_ \\NetworkShare.xml (Place this inside the group policy folder on Sysvol)
>>
>> _Drive Letter_ C:.xml
All of your managed devices must have access to this location if you want them to use Enterprise Mode and your site list.
3. Refresh the policy in your organization and then view the affected sites in
Microsoft Edge.<p>The site shows a message in Microsoft Edge, saying that the page needs IE.
At the same time, the page opens in IE11; in a new frame if it is not yet
running, or in a new tab if it is.

# Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You can turn on local control of Enterprise Mode so that your users can turn Enterprise Mode on from the **Tools** menu. Turning on this feature also adds the **Enterprise** browser profile to the **Emulation** tab of the F12 developer tools.
Besides turning on this feature, you also have the option to provide a URL for Enterprise Mode logging. If you turn logging on, Internet Explorer initiates a simple POST back to the supplied address, including the URL and a specification that **EnterpriseMode** was turned on or off through the **Tools** menu.
**To turn on local control of Enterprise Mode using Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor and go to the **Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Internet Explorer\\Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu** setting.
![group policy editor with emie setting.](images/ie-emie-editpolicy.png)
2. Click **Enabled**, and then in the **Options** area, type the location for where to receive reports about when your employees use this functionality to turn Enterprise Mode on or off from the **Tools** menu.
**To turn on local control of Enterprise Mode using the registry**
1. Open a registry editor, like regedit.exe and go to `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode`.
2. In the right pane, right-click and click **New**, click **String Value**, and then name the new value **Enable**.
3. Right-click the **Enable** key, click **Modify**, and then type a **Value data** to point to a server that you can listen to for updates.
![edit registry string for data collection location.](images/ie-emie-editregistrystring.png)
Your **Value data** location can be any of the following types:
- **URL location (like, https://www.emieposturl.com/api/records or https://localhost:13000)**. IE sends a POST message to the URL every time a change is made to Enterprise Mode from the **Tools** menu.<p>**Important**<br>
The `https://www.emieposturl.com/api/records` example will only work if you’ve downloaded the sample discussed in the [Set up Enterprise Mode logging and data collection](set-up-enterprise-mode-logging-and-data-collection.md) topic. If you don’t have the sample, you won’t have the web API.
- **Local network location (like, https://*emieposturl*/)**. IE sends a POST message to your specified local network location every time a change is made to Enterprise Mode from the **Tools** menu.
- **Empty string**. If you leave the **Value data** box blank; your employees will be able to turn Enterprise Mode on and off from the **Tools** menu, but you won’t collect any logging data.
For information about how to collect the data provided when your employees turn Enterprise Mode on or off from the **Tools** menu, see [Set up Enterprise Mode logging and data collection](set-up-enterprise-mode-logging-and-data-collection.md).

# Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Enterprise Mode is a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11, letting websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 8 or Windows Internet Explorer 7, avoiding the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.
The Enterprise Mode Site List Portal is an open-source web tool on GitHub that allows you to manage your Enterprise Mode Site List, hosted by the app, with multiple users. The portal is designed to use IIS and a SQL Server backend, leveraging Active Directory (AD) for employee management. Updates to your site list are made by submitting new change requests, which are then approved by a designated group of people, put into a pre-production environment for testing, and then deployed immediately, or scheduled for deployment later.
You can use IE11 and the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal to manage your Enterprise Mode Site List, hosted by the app, with multiple users.

# Using IE7 Enterprise Mode or IE8 Enterprise Mode
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Enterprise Mode gives you a way for your legacy websites and apps to run using emulated versions of Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Internet Explorer 8, while your new sites and apps run using Internet Explorer 11, including modern standards and features.
Although it’s called IE7 Enterprise Mode, it actually turns on Enterprise Mode along with Internet Explorer 7 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 Compatibility View. Compatibility View chooses which document mode to use based on whether there’s a `DOCTYPE` tag in your code:
- **DOCTYPE tag found.** Webpages render using the Internet Explorer 7 document mode.
- **No DOCTYPE tag found.** Webpages render using the Internet Explorer 5 document mode.
**Important**<br>
Because we’ve added the IE7 Enterprise Mode option, we’ve had to rename the original functionality of Enterprise Mode to be IE8 Enterprise Mode. We’ve also replaced Edge Mode with IE11 Document Mode, so you can explicitly use IE11 on Windows 10.
## Turning on and using IE7 Enterprise Mode or IE8 Enterprise Mode
For instructions about how to add IE7 Enterprise Mode or IE8 Enterprise Mode to your webpages and apps, see:
- [Add single sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-enterprise-mode-tool.md)
- [Add single sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-enterprise-mode-tool.md)
- [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md)
- [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md)
For instructions and more info about how to fix your compatibility issues using Enterprise Mode, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).

# Verify your changes using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
> [!Important]
> This step requires that each Requester have access to a test machine with Administrator rights, letting him or her get to the pre-production environment to make sure that the requested change is correct.
The Requester successfully submits a change request to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal and then gets an email, including:
- **EMIE_RegKey**. A batch file that when run, sets the registry key to point to the local pre-production Enterprise Mode Site List.
- **Test steps**. The suggested steps about how to test the change request details to make sure they're accurate in the pre-production environment.
- **EMIE_Reset**. A batch file that when run, reverts the changes made to the pre-production registry.
## Verify and send the change request to Approvers
The Requester tests the changes and then goes back into the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, **Pre-production verification** page to verify whether the testing was successful.
**To verify changes and send to the Approver(s)**
1. On the **Pre-production verification** page, the Requester clicks **Successful** and optionally includes any attachments (only .jpeg, .png, .jpg and .txt files are allowed) to support the change request and testing results.
2. The Requester reviews the pre-defined Approver(s), and then clicks **Send for approval**.
The Requester, the Approver group, and the Administrator group all get an email, stating that the change request is waiting for approval.
**To rollback your pre-production changes**
1. On the **Pre-production verification** page, the Requester clicks **Failed** and optionally includes any attachments (only .jpeg, .png, .jpg and .txt files are allowed) to support the change request and testing results.
2. Add a description about the issue into the **Issue description** box, and then click **Send failure details**.
The change request and issue info are sent to the Administrators.
3. The Requester clicks **Roll back** to roll back the changes in the pre-production environment.
After the Requester rolls back the changes, the request can be updated and re-submitted.
## View rolled back change requests
The original Requester and the Administrator(s) group can view the rolled back change requests.
**To view the rolled back change request**
- In the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, click **Rolled back** from the left pane.
All rolled back change requests appear, with role assignment determining which ones are visible.
## Next steps
If the change request is certified as successful, the Requester must next send it to the Approvers for approval. For the Approver-related steps, see the [Approve a change request using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](approve-change-request-enterprise-mode-portal.md) topic.

## What is Enterprise Mode?
Enterprise Mode, a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 devices, lets websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Internet Explorer 8. Running in this mode helps to avoid many of the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.
Many customers identify web app compatibility as a significant cost to upgrading because web apps need to be tested and upgraded before adopting a new browser. The improved compatibility provided by Enterprise Mode can help give customers confidence to upgrade to IE11, letting customers benefit from modern web standards, increased performance, improved security, and better reliability.

## Available dual-browser experiences
Based on the size of your legacy web app dependency, determined by the data collected with [Windows Upgrade Analytics](https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2016/09/26/new-windows-10-and-office-365-features-for-the-secure-productive-enterprise/), there are several options from which you can choose to configure your enterprise browsing environment:
- Use Microsoft Edge as your primary browser.
- Use Microsoft Edge as your primary browser and use Enterprise Mode to open sites in Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) that use IE proprietary technologies.
- Use Microsoft Edge as your primary browser and open all intranet sites in IE11.
- Use IE11 as your primary browser and use Enterprise Mode to open sites in Microsoft Edge that use modern web technologies.
For more info about when to use which option, and which option is best for you, see the [Continuing to make it easier for Enterprise customers to upgrade to Internet Explorer 11 — and Windows 10](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/11/23/windows-10-1511-enterprise-improvements) blog.

# Group Policy and ActiveX installation
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
ActiveX controls are installed and invoked using the HTML object tag with the CODEBASE attribute. This attribute, through a URL, makes Internet Explorer:
- Get the ActiveX control if it's not already installed.
- Download the installation package.
- Perform trust verification on the object.
- Prompt for installation permission, using the IE Information Bar.
During installation, the rendering page registers and invokes the control, so that after installation, any standard user can invoke the control.
**Important**<br>ActiveX control installation requires administrator-level permissions.
## Group Policy for the ActiveX Installer Service
You use the ActiveX Installer Service (AXIS) and Group Policy to manage your ActiveX control deployment. The AXIS-related settings can be changed using either the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) or the Local Group Policy Editor, and include:
- **Approved Installation Sites for ActiveX Controls.** A list of approved installation sites used by AXIS to determine whether it can install a particular ActiveX control.
- **ActiveX installation policy for sites in trusted zones.** Identifies how AXIS should behave when a website tries to install an ActiveX control. First, AXIS looks to see if the site appears in either the list of approved installation sites or in the **Trusted sites** zone. If the does, then AXIS checks to make sure the control meets your company's policy requirements. If the ActiveX control meets all of these requirements, the control is installed.
For more information about the ActiveX Installer Service, see [Administering the ActiveX Installer Service in Windows 7](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-7/dd631688(v=ws.10)).

# Add employees to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After you get the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal up and running, you must add your employees. During this process, you'll also assign roles and groups.
The available roles are:
- **Requester.** The primary role to assign to employees that need to access the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal. The Requester can create change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal change requests, and sign off and close personal change requests.
- **App Manager.** This role is considered part of the Approvers group. The App Manager can approve change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal requests, and sign off and close personal requests.
- **Group Head.** This role is considered part of the Approvers group. The Group Head can approve change requests, validate changes in the pre-production environment, rollback pre-production and production changes in case of failure, send personal approval requests, view personal requests, and sign off and close personal requests.
- **Administrator.** The role with the highest-level rights; we recommend limiting the number of employees you grant this role. The Administrator can perform any task that can be performed by the other roles, in addition to adding employees to the portal, assigning employee roles, approving registrations to the portal, configuring portal settings (for example, determining the freeze schedule, determining the pre-production and production XML paths, and determining the attachment upload location), and using the standalone Enterprise Mode Site List Manager page.
**To add an employee to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal**
1. Open the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal and click the **Employee Management** icon in the upper-right area of the page.
The **Employee management** page appears.
2. Click **Add a new employee**.
The **Add a new employee** page appears.
3. Fill out the fields for each employee, including:
- **Email.** Add the employee's email address.
- **Name.** This box autofills based on the email address.
- **Role.** Pick a single role for the employee, based on the list above.
- **Group name.** Pick the name of the employee's group. The group association also assigns a group of Approvers.
- **Comments.** Add optional comments about the employee.
- **Active.** Click the check box to make the employee active in the system. If you want to keep the employee in the system, but you want to prevent access, clear this check box.
4. Click **Save**.
**To export all employees to an Excel spreadsheet**
1. On the **Employee management** page, click **Export to Excel**.
2. Save the EnterpriseModeUsersList.xlsx file.
The Excel file includes all employees with access to the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, including user name, email address, role, and group name.

# Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
You can add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list by creating a custom text (TXT) or Extensible Markup Language (XML) file of problematic sites and then adding it in the **Bulk add from file** area of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager. You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
If you want to add your websites one at a time, see Add sites to the [Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (TXT) file
You can create and use a custom text file to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time. <p>**Important**<br>This text file is only lets you add multiple sites at the same time. You can’t use this file to deploy Enterprise Mode into your company.
You must separate each site using commas or carriage returns. For example:
```
microsoft.com, bing.com, bing.com/images
```
**-OR-**
```
microsoft.com
bing.com
bing.com/images
```
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (XML) file using the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema
You can create and use a custom XML file with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time. For more info about the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
Each XML file must include:
- **Version number.** This number must be incremented with each version of the Enterprise Mode site list, letting Internet Explorer know whether the list is new. Approximately 65 seconds after Internet Explorer 11 starts, it compares your site list version to the stored version number. If your file has a higher number, the newer version is loaded. <p>**Important**<br>After this check, IE11 won’t look for an updated list again until you restart the browser.
- **&lt;emie&gt; tag.** This tag specifies the domains and domain paths that must be rendered using IE7 Enterprise Mode, IE8 Enterprise Mode, or the default IE11 browser environment.<p>**Important**<br>If you decide a site requires IE7 Enterprise Mode, you must add `forceCompatView=”true”` to your XML file. That code tells Enterprise Mode to check for a `DOCTYPE` tag on the specified webpage. If there is, the site renders using Windows Internet Explorer 7. If there’s no tag, the site renders using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.
- <strong>&lt;docMode&gt; tag.</strong>This tag specifies the domains and domain paths that need either to appear using the specific doc mode you assigned to the site. Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
### Enterprise Mode v.1 XML schema example
The following is an example of what your XML file should look like when you’re done adding your sites. For more info about how to create your XML file, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
```
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">www.cpandl.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">www.woodgrovebank.com</domain>
<domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true">adatum.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">relecloud.com
<path exclude="false">/about</path>
</domain>
<domain exclude="false">fabrikam.com
<path exclude="true">/products</path>
</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain>contoso.com
<path docMode="7">/travel</path>
</domain>
<domain>fabrikam.com
<path docMode="7">/products</path>
</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
To make sure your site list is up-to-date; wait 65 seconds after opening IE and then check that the `CurrentVersion` value in the `HKEY\CURRENT\USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode\` registry key matches the version number in your file.<p>**Important**<br>If `CurrentVersion` is not set or is wrong, it means that the XML parsing failed. This can mean that the XML file isn’t there, that there are access problems, or that the XML file format is wrong. Don’t manually change the `CurrentVersion` registry setting. You must make your changes to your site list and then update the list using the import function in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (.
## Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
After you create your .xml or .txt file, you can bulk add the sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1).
**To add multiple sites**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1), click **Bulk add from file**.
2. Go to your site list (either .txt or .xml) to add the included sites to the tool, and then click **Open**.<p>
Each site is validated and if successful, added to the global site list when you click **OK** to close the menu. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you can try to fix the issues or pick the site and click **Add to list** to ignore the validation problem. For more information about fixing validation problems, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
3. Click **OK** to close the **Bulk add sites to the list** menu.
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save to XML**, and save your file.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
## Next steps
After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu. For more information, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).

# Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
You can add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list by creating a custom text (TXT) or Extensible Markup Language (XML) file of problematic sites and then adding it in the **Bulk add from file** area of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2). You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
To add your websites one at a time, see [Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (TXT) file
You can create and use a custom text file with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time.
>**Important:**<br>This text file is only lets you add multiple sites at the same time. You can’t use this file to deploy Enterprise Mode into your company.
You must separate each site using commas or carriage returns. For example:
```
microsoft.com, bing.com, bing.com/images
```
**-OR-**
```
microsoft.com
bing.com
bing.com/images
```
## Create an Enterprise Mode site list (XML) file using the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema
You can create and use a custom XML file with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) to add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list at the same time.
Each XML file must include:
- **site-list version number**. This number must be incremented with each version of the Enterprise Mode site list, letting Internet Explorer know whether the list is new. Approximately 65 seconds after Internet Explorer 11 starts, it compares your site list version to the stored version number. If your file has a higher number, the newer version is loaded. <p>**Important**<br>After this check, IE11 won’t look for an updated list again until you restart the browser. 
- **&lt;compat-mode&gt; tag.** This tag specifies what compatibility setting are used for specific sites or domains.
- **&lt;open-in&gt; tag.** This tag specifies what browser opens for each sites or domain.
### Enterprise Mode v.2 XML schema example
The following is an example of what your XML file should look like when you’re done adding your sites. For more info about how to create your XML file, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md).
```xml
<site-list version="205">
<!-- File creation header -->
<created-by>
<tool>EnterpriseSitelistManager</tool>
<version>10240</version>
<date-created>20150728.135021</date-created>
</created-by>
<!-- Begin Site List -->
<site url="www.cpandl.com">
<compat-mode>IE8Enterprise</compat-mode>
<open-in>MSEdge</open-in>
</site>
<site url="www.cpandl.com/images">
<compat-mode>IE7Enterprise</compat-mode>
<open-in>IE11</open-in>
</site>
<site url="contoso.com">
<compat-mode>default</compat-mode>
<open-in>IE11</open-in>
</site>
</site-list>
```
In the above example, the following is true:
- ```www.cpandl.com```, as the main domain, must use IE8 Enterprise Mode. However, ```www.cpandl.com/images``` must use IE7 Enterprise Mode.
- contoso.com, and all of its domain paths, can use the default compatibility mode for the site.
To make sure your site list is up-to-date; wait 65 seconds after opening IE and then check that the `CurrentVersion` value in the `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\EnterpriseMode\` registry key matches the version number in your file. <p>**Important**<br>If `CurrentVersion` is not set or is wrong, it means that the XML parsing failed. This can mean that the XML file isn’t there, that there are access problems, or that the XML file format is wrong. Don’t manually change the `CurrentVersion` registry setting. You must make your changes to your site list and then update the list using the import function in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2).
## Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)
After you create your .xml or .txt file, you can bulk add the sites to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2).
**To add multiple sites**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2), click **Bulk add from file**.
2. Go to your site list (either .txt or .xml) to add the included sites to the tool, and then click **Open**.<p>
Each site is validated and if successful, added to the global site list when you click **OK** to close the menu. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you can try to fix the issues or pick the site and click **Add to list** to ignore the validation problem. For more information about fixing validation problems, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-validation-problems-using-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
3. Click **OK** to close the **Bulk add sites to the list** menu.
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save to XML**, and save your file.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
## Next steps
After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu.

# Add single sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Enterprise Mode is a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11, letting websites render using a modified browser configuration that’s designed to emulate either Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Windows Internet Explorer 8, avoiding the common compatibility problems associated with web apps written and tested on older versions of Internet Explorer.<p>**Important**<br>You can only add specific URLs, not Internet or Intranet Zones.
<p><strong>Note</strong><br>If you need to include a lot of sites, instead of adding them one at a time, you can create a list of websites and add them all at the same time. For more information, see <a href="add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md" data-raw-source="[Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Windows 7 and 8.1 Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md)">Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Windows 7 and 8.1 Enterprise Mode Site List Manager</a>.
## Adding a site to your compatibility list
You can add individual sites to your compatibility list by using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager.
<p><strong>Note</strong><br>If you&#39;re using the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, you&#39;ll need to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1). For more info, see <a href="add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-enterprise-mode-tool.md" data-raw-source="[Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-enterprise-mode-tool.md)">Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)</a>.
**To add a site to your compatibility list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1), click **Add**.
2. Type the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *&lt;domain&gt;.com* or *&lt;domain&gt;.com*/*&lt;path&gt;* into the **URL** box.<p>
Don't include the `https://` or `https://` designation. The tool automatically tries both versions during validation.
3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.<p>
Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool.
4. Choose **IE7 Enterprise Mode**, **IE8 Enterprise Mode**, or the appropriate document mode for sites that must be rendered using the emulation of a previous version of IE, or pick **Default IE** if the site should use the latest version of IE.
The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, **IE8 Enterprise Mode** is automatically selected.
Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
5. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.<p>
If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway.
6. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).
## Next steps
After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu.

## Adding a site to your compatibility list
You can add individual sites to your compatibility list by using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager.<p>
**Note**<br>If you're using the v.1 version of the Enterprise Mode schema, you'll need to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1). For more info, see [Add sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using the WEnterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-single-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
**To add a site to your compatibility list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2), click **Add**.
2. Type the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *&lt;domain&gt;.com* or *&lt;domain&gt;.com*/*&lt;path&gt;* into the **URL** box.<p>
Don't include the `https://` or `https://` designation. The tool automatically tries both versions during validation.
3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.<p>
Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool.
4. In the **Compat Mode** box, choose one of the following:
- **IE8Enterprise**. Loads the site in IE8 Enterprise Mode.
- **IE7Enterprise**. Loads the site in IE7 Enterprise Mode.
- **IE\[*x*\]**. Where \[x\] is the document mode number and the site loads in the specified document mode.
- **Default Mode**. Loads the site using the default compatibility mode for the page.
The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, **IE8 Enterprise Mode** is automatically selected.
Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual. For more specific info about using document modes, see [Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list](fix-compat-issues-with-doc-modes-and-enterprise-mode-site-list.md).
5. In conjunction with the compatibility mode, you'll need to use the **Open in** box to pick which browser opens the site.
- **IE11**. Opens the site in IE11, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee. If you have enabled [Internet Explorer mode integration on Microsoft Edge](/deployedge/edge-ie-mode), this option will open sites in Internet Explorer mode.
- **MSEdge**. Opens the site in Microsoft Edge, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.
- **None**. Opens in whatever browser the employee chooses.
6. If you have enabled [Internet Explorer mode integration on Microsoft Edge](/deployedge/edge-ie-mode), and you have sites that still need to opened in the standalone Internet Explorer 11 application, you can check the box for **Standalone IE**. This checkbox is only relevant when associated to 'Open in' IE11. Checking the box when 'Open In' is set to MSEdge or None will not change browser behavior.
7. The checkbox **Allow Redirect** applies to the treatment of server side redirects. If you check this box, server side redirects will open in the browser specified by the open-in tag. For more information, see [here](./enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md#updated-schema-attributes).
8. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.<p>
If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway.
9. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.<p>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on local control and logging for Enterprise Mode](turn-on-local-control-and-logging-for-enterprise-mode.md).
## Next steps
After you’ve added all of your sites to the tool and saved the file to XML, you can configure the rest of the Enterprise Mode functionality to use it. You can also turn Enterprise Mode on locally, so your users have the option to use Enterprise Mode on individual websites from the **Tools** menu.

# Administrative templates and Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Administrative Templates are made up of a hierarchy of policy categories and subcategories that define how your policy settings appear in the Local Group Policy Editor, including:
- What registry locations correspond to each setting.
- What value options or restrictions are associated with each setting.
- The default value for many settings.
- Text explanations about each setting and the supported version of Internet Explorer.
For a conceptual overview of Administrative Templates, see [Managing Group Policy ADMX Files Step-by-Step Guide](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-vista/cc709647(v=ws.10)).
## What are Administrative Templates?
Administrative Templates are XML-based, multi-language files that define the registry-based Group Policy settings in the Local Group Policy Editor. There are two types of Administrative Templates:
- **ADMX.** A language-neutral setup file that states the number and type of policy setting, and the location by category, as it shows up in the Local Group Policy Editor.
- **ADML.** A language-specific setup file that provides language-related information to the ADMX file. This file lets the policy setting show up in the right language in the Local Group Policy Editor. You can add new languages by adding new ADML files in the required language.
## How do I store Administrative Templates?
As an admin, you can create a central store folder on your SYSVOL directory, named **PolicyDefinitions**. For example, %*SystemRoot*%\\PolicyDefinitions. This folder provides a single, centralized storage location for your Administrative Templates (both ADMX and ADML) files, so they can be used by your domain-based Group Policy Objects (GPOs).
<p><strong>Important</strong><br>Your Group Policy tools use the ADMX files in your store, ignoring any local copies. For more information about creating a central store, see <a href="/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-vista/cc722018(v=ws.10)" data-raw-source="[Scenario 1: Editing the Local GPO Using ADMX Files](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-vista/cc722018(v=ws.10))">Scenario 1: Editing the Local GPO Using ADMX Files</a>.
## Administrative Templates-related Group Policy settings
When you install Internet Explorer 11, it updates the local administrative files, Inetres.admx and Inetres.adml, both located in the **PolicyDefinitions** folder.
<p><strong>Note</strong><br>You won&#39;t see the new policy settings if you try to view or edit your policy settings on a computer that isn&#39;t running IE11. To fix this, you can either install IE11, or you can copy the updated Inetres.admx and Inetres.adml files from another computer to the <strong>PolicyDefinitions</strong> folder on this computer.
IE11 provides these new policy settings, which are editable in the Local Group Policy Editor, and appear in the following policy paths:
- Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\
- User Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\
|Catalog |Description |
| ------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------|
|IE |Turns standard IE configuration on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Accelerators |Sets up and manages Accelerators. |
|Internet Explorer\Administrator Approved Controls |Turns ActiveX controls on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Application Compatibility |Turns the **Cut**, **Copy**, or **Paste** operations on or off. This setting also requires that `URLACTION_SCRIPT_PASTE` is set to **Prompt**. |
|Internet Explorer\Browser Menus |Shows or hides the IE menus and menu options.|
|Internet Explorer\Corporate Settings |Turns off whether you specify the code download path for each computer. |
|Internet Explorer\Delete Browsing History |Turns the **Delete Browsing History** settings on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Internet Control Panel |Turns pages on and off in the **Internet Options** dialog box. Also turns on and off the subcategories that manage settings on the **Content**, **General**, **Security** and **Advanced** pages. |
|Internet Explorer\Internet Settings |Sets up and manages the **Advanced settings**, **AutoComplete**, **Display Settings**, and **URL Encoding** options. |
|Internet Explorer\Persistence Behavior |Sets up and manages the file size limits for Internet security zones. |
|Internet Explorer\Privacy |Turns various privacy-related features on and off. |
|Internet Explorer\Security Features |Turns various security-related features on and off in the browser, Windows Explorer, and other applications. |
|Internet Explorer\Toolbars |Turns on and off the ability for users to edit toolbars in the browser. You can also set the default toolbar buttons here. |
|RSS Feeds |Sets up and manages RSS feeds in the browser. |
## Editing Group Policy settings
Regardless which tool you're using to edit your Group Policy settings, you'll need to follow one of these guides for step-by-step editing instructions:
- **If you're using the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) or the Local Group Policy Editor.** See [Edit Administrative Template Policy Settings](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/cc771479(v=ws.11)) for step-by-step instructions about editing your Administrative Templates.
- **If you're using GPMC with Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM).** See [Checklist: Create, Edit, and Deploy a GPO](/microsoft-desktop-optimization-pack/agpm/checklist-create-edit-and-deploy-a-gpo-agpm40) for step-by-step instructions about how to check out a GPO from the AGPM archive, edit it, and request deployment.

# Approve a change request using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After a change request is successfully submitted to the pre-defined Approver(s), employees granted the role of **App Manager**, **Group Head**, or **Administrator**, they must approve the changes.
## Approve or reject a change request
The Approvers get an email stating that a Requester successfully opened, tested, and submitted the change request to the Approvers group. The Approvers can accept or reject a change request.
**To approve or reject a change request**
1. The Approver logs onto the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, **All Approvals** page.
The Approver can also get to the **All Approvals** page by clicking **Approvals Pending** from the left pane.
2. The Approver clicks the expander arrow (**\/**) to the right side of the change request, showing the list of Approvers and the **Approve** and **Reject** buttons.
3. The Approver reviews the change request, making sure it's correct. If the info is correct, the Approver clicks **Approve** to approve the change request. If the info seems incorrect, or if the app shouldn't be added to the site list, the Approver clicks **Reject**.
An email is sent to the Requester, the Approver(s) group, and the Administrator(s) group, with the updated status of the request.
## Send a reminder to the Approver(s) group
If the change request is sitting in the approval queue for too long, the Requester can send a reminder to the group.
- From the **My Approvals** page, click the checkbox next to the name of each Approver to be reminded, and then click **Send reminder**.
An email is sent to the selected Approver(s).
## View rejected change requests
The original Requester, the Approver(s) group, and the Administrator(s) group can all view the rejected change request.
**To view the rejected change request**
- In the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, click **Rejected** from the left pane.
All rejected change requests appear, with role assignment determining which ones are visible.
## Next steps
After an Approver approves the change request, it must be scheduled for inclusion in the production Enterprise Mode Site List. For the scheduling steps, see the [Schedule approved change requests for production using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](schedule-production-change-enterprise-mode-portal.md) topic.

# Auto configuration and auto proxy problems with Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
You might experience some problems using automatic configuration and auto-proxy with Internet Explorer 11.
## Branding changes aren't distributed using automatic configuration
If you've turned on the **Disable external branding of Internet Explorer** Group Policy Object, you won't be able to use automatic configuration to distribute your branding changes to your users' computers. When this object is turned on, it prevents the branding of IE by a non-Microsoft company or entity, such as an Internet service provider or Internet content provider. For more information about automatic configuration, see [Auto configuration settings for Internet Explorer 11](auto-configuration-settings-for-ie11.md) and [Use the Automatic Configuration page in the IEAK 11 Wizard](../ie11-ieak/auto-config-ieak11-wizard.md). For more information about Group Policy settings, see [Group policy objects and Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)](group-policy-objects-and-ie11.md).
## Proxy server setup issues
If you experience issues while setting up your proxy server, you can try these troubleshooting steps:
- Check to make sure the proxy server address is right.
- Check that both **Automatically detect settings** and **Automatic configuration** are turned on in the browser.
- Check that the browser is pointing to the right automatic configuration script location.
**To check your proxy server address**
1. On the **Tools** menu, click **Internet Options**, and then **Connections**.
2. Click **Settings** or **LAN Settings**, and then look at your proxy server address.
3. If you have multiple proxy servers, click **Advanced** to look at all of the additional addresses.<p>**Note**<br>If IE11 uses a proxy server for local IP addresses, regardless whether you turned on the **Bypass Proxy Server for Local Addresses** option, see [Internet Explorer Uses Proxy Server for Local IP Address Even if the "Bypass Proxy Server for Local Addresses" Option Is Turned On](/troubleshoot/browsers/internet-explorer-uses-proxy-server-local-ip-address).
**To check that you've turned on the correct settings**
4. On the **Tools** menu, click **Internet Options**, and then click **Connections**.
5. Click **Settings** or **LAN Settings**.
6. In the **Automatic configuration** area, check that you've clicked the **Automatically detect settings** box. If you've turned on automatic configuration, check to make sure that you've also clicked the **Use automatic configuration script** box.<p>**Note**<br>If at this point everything is set up correctly, but the proxy server still isn't behaving properly, click the **Detect my network settings** box in the **Error** dialog box to try to detect the proxy server, again.
**To check that you're pointing to the correct automatic configuration script location**
7. On the **Tools** menu, click **Internet Options**, and then click **Connections**.
8. Click **Settings** or **LAN Settings**.
9. In the **Automatic configuration** area, check that you've chosen the **Use automatic configuration script** box, and that it has the correct location to your automatic configuration script or for your automatic proxy URL.

# Auto configuration settings for Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Automatic configuration lets you apply custom branding and graphics to your internal Internet Explorer installations, running on Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2. For more information about adding custom branding and graphics to your IE package, see [Customize the toolbar button and Favorites List icons using IEAK 11](../ie11-ieak/guidelines-toolbar-and-favorites-list-ieak11.md).<p>**Important**<br>You'll only see and be able to use the **IE Customization Wizard 11 - Automatic Configuration** page if you're creating an internal IE installation package. For more information about the **IE Customization Wizard 11 - Automatic Configuration** page, see [Use the Automatic Configuration page in the IEAK 11 Wizard](../ie11-ieak/auto-config-ieak11-wizard.md).
## Adding the automatic configuration registry key
For custom graphics and branding, add the `FEATURE\AUTOCONFIG\BRANDING` registry key to your IE installation package.<p>**Important**<br>Follow these directions carefully because serious problems can occur if you update your registry incorrectly. For added protection, back up your registry so you can restore it if a problem occurs.
**To add the registry key**
1. On the **Start** screen, type **regedit**, and then click **Regedit.exe**.
2. Right-click the `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl` subkey, point to **New**, and then click **Key**.
3. Enter the new key name, `FEATURE\AUTOCONFIG\BRANDING`, and then press Enter.
4. Right-click `FEATURE\AUTOCONFIG\BRANDING`, point to **New**, and then click **DWORD (32-bit) Value**.
5. Enter the new DWORD value name, **iexplore.exe**, and then press Enter.
6. Right-click **iexplore.exe**, and then click **Modify**.
7. In the **Value data** box, enter **1**, and then click **OK**.
8. Exit the registry editor.
## Updating your automatic configuration settings
After adding the `FEATURE\AUTOCONFIG\BRANDING` registry key, you can change your automatic configuration settings to pick up the updated branding.
<p><strong>Important</strong><br>Your branding changes won&#39;t be added or updated if you&#39;ve previously chosen the <strong>Disable external branding of IE</strong> setting in the <code>User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer</code> Group Policy object. This setting is intended to prevent branding by a third-party, like an Internet service or content provider. For more information about Group Policy, including videos and the latest technical documentation, see the <a href="/windows/deployment/deploy-whats-new" data-raw-source="[Group Policy TechCenter](/windows/deployment/deploy-whats-new)">Group Policy TechCenter</a>.
**To update your settings**
1. Open the IE Customization Wizard 11, and go to the **Automatic Configuration** page.
2. Choose the **Automatically detect configuration settings** check box to allow automatic detection of browser settings.
3. Choose the **Enable Automatic Configuration** box to let you change the rest of the configuration options, including:
- **Automatically configure every box:** Type how often IE should check for configuration updates. Typing **0** (zero), or not putting in any number, means that automatic configuration only happens when the computer restarts.
- **Automatic Configuration URL (.INS file) box:** Type the location of your automatic configuration script.
- **Automatic proxy URL (.JS, .JVS, or .PAC file) box:** Type the location of your automatic proxy script.<p> **Important**<br>Internet Explorer 11 no longer supports using file server locations with your proxy configuration (.pac) files. To keep using your .pac files, you have to keep them on a web server and reference them using a URL, like `https://share/test.ins`.
If your branding changes aren't correctly deployed after running through this process, see [Auto configuration and auto proxy problems with Internet Explorer 11](auto-configuration-and-auto-proxy-problems-with-ie11.md).
## Locking your automatic configuration settings
You have two options to restrict your users' ability to override the automatic configuration settings, based on your environment.
- **Using Microsoft Active Directory.** Choose **Disable changing Automatic Configuration settings** from the Administrative Templates setting.
- **Not Using Active Directory.** Choose the **Disable changing Automatic Configuration settings** setting in the `User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer` Group Policy object.

# Auto detect settings Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
After you specify the specific settings related to automatic detection on your Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS) servers, you can set up your users' browser settings from a central location.
Automatic detection works even if the browser wasn't originally set up or installed by the administrator.
- **Using DHCP servers:** For local area network (LAN)-based users. This server type lets you specify your global and subnet TCP/IP parameters centrally, defining your users' parameters by using reserved addresses. By doing it this way, a computer can move between subnets, automatically reconfiguring for TCP/IP when it starts.
- **Using DNS servers:** For users on dial-up connections. This server type uses a set of protocols and services on a TCP/IP network, which lets users search for other computers by using hierarchical, user-friendly names (hosts), instead of numeric IP addresses.<p>**Note**<br>DHCP has a higher priority than DNS for automatic configuration. If DHCP provides the URL to a .pac, .jvs, .js, or .ins configuration file, the process stops and the DNS lookup doesn't happen.
## Updating your automatic detection settings
To use automatic detection, you have to set up your DHCP and DNS servers.<p>**Note**<br>Your DHCP servers must support the `DHCPINFORM` message, to obtain the DHCP options.
**To turn on automatic detection for DHCP servers**
1. Open the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11, and go to the **Automatic Configuration** page.
2. Choose the **Automatically detect configuration settings** box to automatically detect your browser settings. For more information about the **Automatic Configuration** page, see [Use the Automatic Configuration page in the IEAK 11 Wizard](../ie11-ieak/auto-config-ieak11-wizard.md).
3. Open the [DHCP Administrative Tool](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/dd145324(v=ws.10)), create a new option type, using the code number 252, and then associate it with the URL to your configuration file. For detailed instructions about how to do this, see [Create an option 252 entry in DHCP](/previous-versions/tn-archive/bb794881(v=technet.10)).
**To turn on automatic detection for DNS servers**
4. Open the IE Customization Wizard 11, and go to the **Automatic Configuration** page.
5. Choose the **Automatically detect configuration settings** box to automatically detect your browser settings.
6. In your DNS database file, create a host record named, **WPAD**. This record has the IP address of the web server storing your automatic configuration (.js, .jvs, .pac, or .ins) file.<p>**-OR-**<p>Create a canonical name (CNAME) alias record named, **WPAD**. This record has the resolved name (not the IP address) of the server storing your automatic configuration (.pac) file.<p>**Note**<br>For more information about creating a **WPAD** entry, see [Creating a WPAD entry in DNS](/previous-versions/tn-archive/cc995062(v=technet.10)).
7. After the database file propagates to the server, the DNS name, `wpad.<domain>.com` resolves to the server name that includes your automatic configuration file.<p>**Note**<br>Internet Explorer 11 creates a default URL template based on the host name, **wpad**. For example, `https://wpad.<domain>.com/wpad.dat`. Because of this, you need to set up a file or redirection point in your web server **WPAD** record, named **wpad.dat**. The **wpad.dat** record delivers the contents of your automatic configuration file.

# Auto proxy configuration settings for Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Configure and maintain your proxy settings, like pointing your users' browsers to your automatic proxy script, through the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11 running on either Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2.
## Updating your auto-proxy settings
You can use your Internet settings (.ins) files to set up your standard proxy settings. You can also specify script files (.js, .jvs, or .pac) to configure and maintain your advanced proxy settings. IE uses your auto-proxy script files to dynamically determine whether to connect to a host or use a proxy server. If a proxy server connection fails, Internet Explorer 11 automatically attempts to connect to another proxy server that you have specified.
**To update your settings**
1. Create a script file with your proxy information, copying it to a server location.
2. Open the IE Customization Wizard 11, and go to the **Automatic Configuration** page.
3. Choose the **Enable Automatic Configuration** box to let you change the rest of the configuration options, including:
- **Automatically configure every box:** Type how often IE should check for configuration updates. Typing **0** (zero), or not putting in any number, means that updates only happen when the computer restarts.
- **Automatic Configuration URL (.INS file) box:** Type the location of the .ins file you want to use for automatic configuration. For more information about setting up **Automatic Configuration**, see [Auto configuration settings for Internet Explorer 11](auto-configuration-settings-for-ie11.md).
- **Automatic proxy URL (.JS, .JVS, or .PAC file) box:** Type the location of your automatic proxy script. This script runs whenever IE11 makes a network request and can include multiple proxy servers for each protocol type.<p>**Important**<br>IE11 no longer supports using file server locations with your proxy configuration (.pac) files. To keep using your .pac files, you have to keep them on a web server and reference them using a URL, like `https://share/test.ins`.
## Locking your auto-proxy settings
You have two options to restrict your users' ability to override the automatic configuration settings, based on your environment.
- **Using Microsoft Active Directory.** Choose **Disable changing proxy settings** from the Administrative Templates setting.
- **Not Using Active Directory.** Choose the **Prevent changing proxy settings** setting in the `User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer` Group Policy object. For more information about Group Policy, see the [Group Policy TechCenter](/windows/deployment/deploy-whats-new).

# Blocked out-of-date ActiveX controls
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
ActiveX controls are small apps that let websites provide content, like videos and games, and let you interact with content, like toolbars. Unfortunately, because many ActiveX controls aren't automatically updated, they can become outdated as new versions are released. It's very important that you keep your ActiveX controls up to date because malicious software (or malware) can target security flaws in outdated controls, damaging your computer by collecting info from it, installing unwanted software, or by letting someone else control it remotely. To help avoid this situation, Internet Explorer includes a security feature called _out-of-date ActiveX control blocking_.
We'll periodically update this page with new ActiveX controls blocked by this feature. We'll typically provide one month's advance notice before adding new controls to the list.
You will receive a notification if a webpage tries to load one of the following of ActiveX control versions:
**Java**
| Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.4, everything below (but not including) update 43 |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| J2SE 5.0, everything below (but not including) update 99 |
| Java SE 6, everything below (but not including) update 181 |
| Java SE 7, everything below (but not including) update 171 |
| Java SE 8, everything below (but not including) update 161 |
| Java SE 9, everything below (but not including) update 4 |
**Silverlight**
| Everything below (but not including) Silverlight 5.1.50907.0 |
|--------------------------------------------------------------|
| |
For more information, see [Out-of-date ActiveX control blocking](out-of-date-activex-control-blocking.md) and [Internet Explorer begins blocking out-of-date ActiveX controls](https://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2014/08/06/internet-explorer-begins-blocking-out-of-date-activex-controls.aspx). You can also view Microsoft's complete list of out-of-date ActiveX controls in the XML-based [version list](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=403864).

# Browser cache changes and roaming profiles
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
We’ve redesigned the browser cache to improve the performance, flexibility, reliability, and scalability of Internet Explorer and the apps that rely on the Windows Internet (WinINet) cache. Our new database design stops multiple clients from simultaneously accessing and using cached information, while also providing a higher level of data integrity.
You won’t notice any changes to the management of your roaming profile data if you use our new database implementation in conjunction with the [roaming user profile guidelines](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/jj649079(v=ws.11)). This means that IE data that’s stored in the `AppData\Roaming` user profile folder is still be uploaded to your normal profile storage location after a user successfully logs off.<p>**Note**<br>Cookies in a roaming profile can only be set by Internet Explorer for the desktop, with Enhanced Protected Mode turned off. Cookies set by the immersive version of IE or by Microsoft Store apps, can’t be part of a roaming profile. For more information about persistent cookies and roaming, see [Persistent cookies are not roamed in Internet Explorer](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=401545).
To get the best results while using roaming profiles, we strongly recommend the following:
- Create a separate roaming repository for each domain account that uses roaming.
- Restrict roaming user profiles so they work on only one computer at a time. Using a single roaming profile on multiple computers isn’t supported (via console or Remote Desktop) and can cause unpredictable results, including cookie loss.
- Allow all computers that let users sign-on with a roaming profile have identical IE cookie policies and settings.
- Make sure to delete the user’s local roaming profile at sign off for any computer using user profile roaming. You can do this by turning on the **Delete cached copies of roaming profiles** Group Policy Object.

For information about turning on Enterprise Mode and using site lists, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
The information in this topic only covers HTTPS protocol. We strongly recommend that you use HTTPS protocol instead of file protocol due to increased performance.
**How Internet Explorer 11 looks for an updated site list**
1. Internet Explorer starts up and looks for an updated site list in the following places:
1. **In the cache container.** IE first checks the cache container to see if it finds your XML site list.
2. **In the local cache.** If there’s nothing in the cache container, IE checks your local cache for the site list.
3. **On the server.** Based on standard IE caching rules, IE might look for a copy of your site list in the location you put specified in the **SiteList** value of the registry.
2. If there’s an .xml file in the cache container, IE waits 65 seconds and then checks the local cache for a newer version of the file from the server, based on standard caching rules. If the server file has a different version number than the version in the cache container, the server file is used and stored in the cache container.<p>**Note**<br>If you’re already using a site list, enterprise mode continues to work during the 65 second wait; it just uses your existing site list instead of your new one.

# Choose how to install Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Before you install Internet Explorer 11, you should:
- **Migrate Group Policy Objects.** Decide if your Group Policy Objects should migrate to the new version.
- **Check vendor support for updated functionality.** Check whether third-party vendors have new versions or updates to necessary add-ons, apps, or code libraries.
- **Choose the right version of Internet Explorer.** IE11 comes pre-installed on Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 or you can download it for Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) from the [Internet Explorer Downloads](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=214251) site.
- **Choose how you'll deploy your installation package.** Your deployment method should be based on whether you're installing to computers already running Windows, or if you're deploying IE11 as part of a Windows installation.
- **Existing computers running Windows.** Use Configuration Manager, System Center Essentials 2010, Windows Server Updates Services (WSUS), or Microsoft Intune to deploy IE11. For more information about how to use these systems, see [Configuration Manager](/previous-versions/system-center/system-center-2012-R2/gg682129(v=technet.10)), [System Center Essentials 2010](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=395200), [Windows Server Update Services](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/hh852345(v=ws.11)), and [Microsoft Intune Overview](https://www.microsoft.com/cloud-platform/microsoft-intune).
- **As part of a Windows deployment.** Update your Windows images to include IE11, and then add the update to your MDT deployment share or to your Windows image. For instructions about how to create and use Windows images, see [Create and Manage a Windows Image Using DISM](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-8.1-and-8/hh825251(v=win.10)). For general information about deploying IE, see [Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)](/mem/configmgr/mdt/), [Windows ADK Overview](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-8.1-and-8/hh825486(v=win.10)).

# Collect data using Enterprise Site Discovery
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Use Internet Explorer to collect data on computers running Windows Internet Explorer 8 through Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, or Windows 7. This inventory information helps you build a list of websites used by your company so you can make more informed decisions about your IE deployments, including figuring out which sites might be at risk or require overhauls during future upgrades.
>**Upgrade Readiness and Windows upgrades**<br>
>You can use Upgrade Readiness to help manage your Windows 10 upgrades on devices running Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 (SP1). You can also use Upgrade Readiness to review several site discovery reports. For more information, see [Manage Windows upgrades with Upgrade Readiness](/windows/deployment/upgrade/manage-windows-upgrades-with-upgrade-readiness).
## Before you begin
Before you start, you need to make sure you have the following:
- Latest cumulative security update (for all supported versions of Internet Explorer):
1. Go to the [Microsoft Security Bulletin](/security-updates/) page, and change the filter to **Windows Internet Explorer 11**.
![microsoft security bulletin techcenter.](images/securitybulletin-filter.png)
2. Click the title of the latest cumulative security update, and then scroll down to the **Affected software** table.
![affected software section.](images/affectedsoftware.png)
3. Click the link that represents both your operating system version and Internet Explorer 11, and then follow the instructions in the **How to get this update** section.
- [Setup and configuration package](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=517719), including:
- Configuration-related PowerShell scripts
- IETelemetry.mof file
- Sample System Center 2012 report templates
You must use System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager or later for these samples to work.
Both the PowerShell script and the Managed Object Format (.MOF) file need to be copied to the same location on the client device, before you run the scripts.
## What data is collected?
Data is collected on the configuration characteristics of IE and the sites it browses, as shown here.
|Data point |IE11 |IE10 |IE9 |IE8 |Description |
|------------------------|-----|-----|-----|-----|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|URL | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |URL of the browsed site, including any parameters included in the URL. |
|Domain | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Top-level domain of the browsed site. |
|ActiveX GUID | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |GUID of the ActiveX controls loaded by the site. |
|Document mode | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Document mode used by IE for a site, based on page characteristics. |
|Document mode reason | ✔️ | ✔️ | | |The reason why a document mode was set by IE. |
|Browser state reason | ✔️ | ✔️ | | |Additional information about why the browser is in its current state. Also called, browser mode. |
|Hang count | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Number of visits to the URL when the browser hung. |
|Crash count | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Number of visits to the URL when the browser crashed. |
|Most recent navigation failure (and count) | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Description of the most recent navigation failure (like, a 404 bad request or 500 internal server error) and the number of times it happened. |
|Number of visits | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Number of times a site has been visited. |
|Zone | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |Zone used by IE to browse sites, based on browser settings. |
>**Important**<br>By default, IE doesn’t collect this data; you have to turn this feature on if you want to use it. After you turn on this feature, data is collected on all sites visited by IE, except during InPrivate sessions. Additionally, the data collection process is silent, so there’s no notification to the employee. Therefore, you must get consent from the employee before you start collecting info. You must also make sure that using this feature complies with all applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
### Understanding the returned reason codes
The following tables provide more info about the Document mode reason, Browser state reason, and the Zone codes that are returned as part of your data collection.
#### DocMode reason
The codes in this table can tell you what document mode was set by IE for a webpage.<br>These codes only apply to Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|3 |Page state is set by the `FEATURE_DOCUMENT_COMPATIBLE_MODE` feature control key.|
|4 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible meta tag. |
|5 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible HTTP header. |
|6 |Page appears on an active **Compatibility View** list. |
|7 |Page is using native XML parsing. |
|8 |Page is using a special Quirks Mode Emulation (QME) mode that uses the modern layout engine, but the quirks behavior of Internet Explorer 5. |
|9 |Page state is set by the browser mode and the page's DOCTYPE.|
#### Browser state reason
The codes in this table can tell you why the browser is in its current state. Also called “browser mode”.<br>These codes only apply to Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|1 |Site is on the intranet, with the **Display intranet sites in Compatibility View** box checked. |
|2 |Site appears on an active **Compatibility View** list, created in Group Policy. |
|3 |Site appears on an active **Compatibility View** list, created by the user. |
|4 |Page is using an X-UA-compatible tag. |
|5 |Page state is set by the **Developer** toolbar. |
|6 |Page state is set by the `FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION` feature control key. |
|7 |Site appears on the Microsoft **Compatibility View (CV)** list. |
|8 |Site appears on the **Quirks** list, created in Group Policy. |
|11 |Site is using the default browser. |
#### Zone
The codes in this table can tell you what zone is being used by IE to browse sites, based on browser settings.<br>These codes apply to Internet Explorer 8, Internet Explorer 9, Internet Explorer 10, and Internet Explorer 11.
|Code |Description |
|-----|------------|
|-1 |Internet Explorer is using an invalid zone. |
|0 |Internet Explorer is using the Local machine zone. |
|1 |Internet Explorer is using the Local intranet zone. |
|2 |Internet Explorer is using the Trusted sites zone. |
|3 |Internet Explorer is using the Internet zone. |
|4 |Internet Explorer is using the Restricted sites zone. |
## Where is the data stored and how do I collect it?
The data is stored locally, in an industry-standard WMI class, .MOF file or in an XML file, depending on your configuration. This file remains on the client computer until it’s collected. To collect the files, we recommend:
- **WMI file**. Use Microsoft Configuration Manager or any agent that can read the contents of a WMI class on your computer.
- **XML file**. Any agent that works with XML can be used.
## WMI Site Discovery suggestions
We recommend that you collect your data for at most a month at a time, to capture a user’s typical workflow. We don’t recommend collecting data longer than that because the data is stored in a WMI provider and can fill up your computer’s hard drive. You may also want to collect data only for pilot users or a representative sample of people, instead of turning this feature on for everyone in your company.
On average, a website generates about 250bytes of data for each visit, causing only a minor impact to Internet Explorer’s performance. Over the course of a month, collecting data from 20 sites per day from 1,000 users, you’ll get about 150MB of data:<p>250 bytes (per site visit) X 20 sites/day X 30 days = (approximately) 150KB X 1000 users = (approximately) 150MB
>**Important**<br>The data collection process is silent, so there’s no notification to the employee. Therefore, you must get consent from the employee before you start collecting info. You must also make sure that using this feature complies with all applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
## Getting ready to use Enterprise Site Discovery
Before you can start to collect your data, you must run the provided PowerShell script (IETelemetrySetUp.ps1) on your client devices to start generating the site discovery data and to set up a place to store this data locally. Then, you must start collecting the site discovery data from the client devices, using one of these three options:
- Collect your hardware inventory using the MOF Editor, while connecting to a client device.<p>
-OR-
- Collect your hardware inventory using the MOF Editor with a .MOF import file.<p>
-OR-
- Collect your hardware inventory using the SMS\DEF.MOF file (Configuration Manager 2007 only)
### WMI only: Running the PowerShell script to compile the .MOF file and to update security privileges
You need to set up your computers for data collection by running the provided PowerShell script (IETelemetrySetUp.ps1) to compile the .mof file and to update security privileges for the new WMI classes.
>**Important**<br>You must run this script if you’re using WMI as your data output. It's not necessary if you're using XML as your data output.
**To set up Enterprise Site Discovery**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 by by-passing the PowerShell execution policy, using this command: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1`. For more info, see [about Execution Policies](/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies).
### WMI only: Set up your firewall for WMI data
If you choose to use WMI as your data output, you need to make sure that your WMI data can travel through your firewall for the domain. If you’re sure, you can skip this section; otherwise, follow these steps:
**To set up your firewall**
1. In **Control Panel**, click **System and Security**, and then click **Windows Firewall**.
2. In the left pane, click **Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall** and scroll down to check the box for **Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)**.
3. Restart your computer to start collecting your WMI data.
## Use PowerShell to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery
You can determine which zones or domains are used for data collection, using PowerShell. If you don’t want to use PowerShell, you can do this using Group Policy. For more info, see [Use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery](#use-group-policy-to-finish-setting-up-enterprise-site-discovery).
>**Important**<br>The .ps1 file updates turn on Enterprise Site Discovery and WMI collection for all users on a device.
- **Domain allow list.** If you have a domain allow list, a comma-separated list of domains that should have this feature turned on, you should use this process.
- **Zone allow list.** If you have a zone allow list, a comma-separated list of zones that should have this feature turned on, you should use this process.
**To set up data collection using a domain allow list**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1, using this command: `.\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 [other args] -SiteAllowList sharepoint.com,outlook.com,onedrive.com`.
>**Important**<br>Wildcards, like \*.microsoft.com, aren’t supported.
**To set up data collection using a zone allow list**
- Start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run IETelemetrySetUp.ps1, using this command: `.\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 [other args] -ZoneAllowList Computer,Intranet,TrustedSites,Internet,RestrictedSites`.
>**Important**<br>Only Computer, Intranet, TrustedSites, Internet, and RestrictedSites are supported.
## Use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery
You can use Group Policy to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery. If you don’t want to use Group Policy, you can do this using PowerShell. For more info, see [Use Powershell to finish setting up Enterprise Site Discovery](#use-powershell-to-finish-setting-up-enterprise-site-discovery).
>**Note**<br> All of the Group Policy settings can be used individually or as a group.
**To set up Enterprise Site Discovery using Group Policy**
- Open your Group Policy editor, and go to these new settings:
|Setting name and location |Description |Options |
|---------------------------|-------------|---------|
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery WMI output |Writes collected data to a WMI class, which can be aggregated using a client-management solution like Configuration Manager. |<ul><li>**On.** Turns on WMI recording.</li><li>**Off.** Turns off WMI recording.</li></ul> |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery XML output |Writes collected data to an XML file, which is stored in your specified location. |<ul><li>**XML file path.** Including this turns on XML recording.</li><li>**Blank.** Turns off XML recording.</li></ul> |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Limit Site Discovery output by Zone |Manages which zone can collect data. |To specify which zones can collect data, you must include a binary number that represents your selected zones, based on this order:<p>0 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>0 – Trusted Sites zone<br>0 – Local Intranet zone<br>0 – Local Machine zone<p>**Example 1:** Include only the Local Intranet zone<p>Binary representation: *00010*, based on:<p>0 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>0 – Trusted Sites zone<br>1 – Local Intranet zone<br>0 – Local Machine zone<p>**Example 2:** Include only the Restricted Sites, Trusted Sites, and Local Intranet zones<p>Binary representation: *10110*, based on:<p>1 – Restricted Sites zone<br>0 – Internet zone<br>1 – Trusted Sites zone<br>1 – Local Intranet zone<br>1 – Local Machine zone |
|Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Limit Site Discovery output by domain |Manages which domains can collect data |To specify which domains can collect data, you must include your selected domains, one domain per line, in the provided box. It should look like:<p>microsoft.sharepoint.com<br>outlook.com<br>onedrive.com<br>timecard.contoso.com<br>LOBApp.contoso.com |
### Combining WMI and XML Group Policy settings
You can use both the WMI and XML settings individually or together:

2. Go to your XML file to add the included sites to the tool, and then click **Open**.<br>Each site is validated and if successful, added to the global site list when you click **OK** to close the menu. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you can try to fix the issues or pick the site and click **Add to list** to ignore the validation problem. For more information about fixing validation problems, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-validation-problems-using-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
3. Click **OK** to close the **Bulk add sites to the list** menu.
## Turn off data collection on your client devices
After you’ve collected your data, you’ll need to turn Enterprise Site Discovery off.
**To stop collecting data, using PowerShell**
- On your client computer, start Windows PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run `IETelemetrySetUp.ps1`, using this command: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass .\IETelemetrySetUp.ps1 –IEFeatureOff`.
>**Note**<br>Turning off data collection only disables the Enterprise Site Discovery feature – all data already written to WMI stays on your employee’s computer.
**To stop collecting data, using Group Policy**
1. Open your Group Policy editor, go to `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery WMI output`, and click **Off**.
2. Go to `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Turn on Site Discovery XML output`, and clear the file path location.
### Delete already stored data from client computers
You can completely remove the data stored on your employee’s computers.
**To delete all existing data**
- On the client computer, start PowerShell in elevated mode (using admin privileges) and run these four commands:
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IEURLInfo`
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IESystemInfo`
- `Remove-WmiObject -Namespace root/cimv2/IETelemetry IECountInfo`

# Create a change request using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Employees assigned to the Requester role can create a change request. A change request is used to tell the Approvers and the Administrator that a website needs to be added or removed from the Enterprise Mode Site List. The employee can navigate to each stage of the process by using the workflow links provided at the top of each page of the portal.
> [!Important]
> Each Requester must have access to a test machine with Administrator rights, letting him or her get to the pre-production environment to make sure that the requested change is correct.
**To create a new change request**
1. The Requester (an employee that has been assigned the Requester role) signs into the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal, and clicks **Create new request**.
The **Create new request** page appears.
2. Fill out the required fields, based on the group and the app, including:
- **Group name.** Select the name of your group from the dropdown box.
- **App name.** Type the name of the app you want to add, delete, or update in the Enterprise Mode Site List.
- **Search all apps.** If you can't remember the name of your app, you can click **Search all apps** and search the list.
- **Add new app.** If your app isn't listed, you can click **Add new app** to add it to the list.
- **Requested by.** Automatically filled in with your name.
- **Description.** Add descriptive info about the app.
- **Requested change.** Select whether you want to **Add to EMIE**, **Delete from EMIE**, or **Update to EMIE**.
- **Reason for request.** Select the best reason for why you want to update, delete, or add the app.
- **Business impact (optional).** An optional area where you can provide info about the business impact of this app and the change.
- **App location (URL).** The full URL location to the app, starting with https:// or https://.
- **App best viewed in.** Select the best browser experience for the app. This can be Internet Explorer 5 through Internet Explorer 11 or one of the IE7Enterprise or IE8Enterprise modes.
- **Is an x-ua tag used?** Select **Yes** or **No** whether an x-ua-compatible tag is used by the app. For more info about x-ua-compatible tags, see the topics in [Defining document compatibility](/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/compatibility/cc288325(v=vs.85)).
4. Click **Save and continue** to save the request and get the app info sent to the pre-production environment site list for testing.
A message appears that the request was successful, including a **Request ID** number, saying that the change is being made to the pre-production environment site list.
5. The Requester gets an email with a batch script, that when run, configures their test machine for the pre-production environment, along with the necessary steps to make sure the changed info is correct.
- **If the change is correct.** The Requester asks the approvers to approve the change request by selecting **Successful** and clicking **Send for approval**.
- **If the change is incorrect.** The Requester can rollback the change in pre-production or ask for help from the Administrator.
## Next steps
After the change request is created, the Requester must make sure the suggested changes work in the pre-production environment. For these steps, see [Verify your changes using the Enterprise Mode Site List Portal](verify-changes-preprod-enterprise-mode-portal.md).

# Create packages for multiple operating systems or languages
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
You'll create multiple versions of your custom browser package if:
- You support more than 1 version of Windows®.
- You support more than 1 language.
- You have custom installation packages with only minor differences. Like, having a different phone number.
**To create a new package**
1. Create an installation package using the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11, as described in the [Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 (IEAK 11) Customization Wizard options](../ie11-ieak/ieak11-wizard-custom-options.md) topic.
2. Go to your **CIE/Custom** folder and rename the `Install.ins`file. For example, if you need a version for employees in Texas, rename the file to Texas.ins.
3. Run the wizard again, using the Custom folder as the destination directory.<p>
**Important**<br>
Except for the **Title bar** text, **Favorites**, **Links bar**, **Home page**, and **Search bar**, keep all of your wizard settings the same for all of your build computers.

# Deploy Internet Explorer 11 using Automatic Version Synchronization (AVS)
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
You can deploy Internet Explorer 11 to your users' computers by using your custom browser packages and Automatic Version Synchronization (AVS).
## What is Automatic Version Synchronization?
Automatic Version Synchronization (AVS) lets you use the Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 (IEAK 11) to synchronize the IE11 setup files on a local computer with the latest setup files on the web.
You must synchronize the setup files at least once on the local computer, for each language and operating system combination, before proceeding through the rest of the wizard. If your packages have more than one version of IE, you need to keep the versions in separate component download folders, which can be pointed to from the **File Locations** page of the IEAK 11. For more information about using the AVS feature, see [Use the Automatic Version Synchronization page in the IEAK 11 Wizard](../ie11-ieak/auto-version-sync-ieak11-wizard.md)

# Deploy pinned websites using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) 2013
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You can pin websites to the Windows 8.1 taskbar for quick access. You pin a website simply by dragging its tab to the taskbar. Some websites can also extend the icon’s Jump List.
The ability to pin websites to the Windows 8.1 taskbar can help make end users in businesses more productive. As an IT professional, for example, you can pin intranet and SharePoint websites to the taskbar to make them immediately available to users. In this article, you learn how to deploy pinned websites by using Lite Touch Installation in the [Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) 2013](/mem/configmgr/mdt/).
## Deploying pinned websites in MDT 2013
This topic requires that you have a complete MDT 2013 deployment share that contains Windows 8.1 which comes with Internet Explorer 11. If you’re deploying to Windows 7 clients and need to learn how to add IE11 to an MDT 2013 deployment share as an update, see [Installing Internet Explorer 11 using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)](./install-ie11-using-operating-system-deployment-systems.md) in the TechNet library.
Deploying pinned websites in MDT 2013 is a 4-step process:
1. Create a .website file for each website that you want to deploy. When you pin a website to the taskbar, Windows 8.1 creates a .website file that describes how the icon should look and feel.
2. Copy the .website files to your deployment share.
3. Copy the .website files to your target computers.
4. Edit the task sequence of your Unattend.xml answer files to pin the websites to the taskbar. In particular, you want to add each .website file to the **TaskbarLinks** item in Unattend.xml during oobeSystem phase. You can add up to six .website files to the **TaskbarLinks** item.
Pinned websites are immediately available to every user who logs on to the computer although the user must click each icon to populate its Jump List.
**Important**<br>
To follow the examples in this topic, you’ll need to pin the Bing (https://www.bing.com/) and MSN (https://www.msn.com/) websites to the taskbar.
### Step 1: Creating .website files
The first step is to create a .website file for each website that you want to pin to the Windows 8.1 taskbar during deployment. A .website file is like a shortcut, except it’s a plain text file that describes not only the website’s URL but also how the icon looks.
**To create each .website file**
1. Open the website in IE11.
2. Drag the website’s tab and drop it on the Windows 8.1 taskbar.
3. Go to `%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar` in Windows Explorer, and copy the bing.website and msn.website files to your desktop.
### Step 2: Copying the .website files to the deployment share
Next, you must enable your deployment share to copy the bing.website and msn.website files to the **Start** menu on each target computer.
**To copy .website files to the deployment share**
1. Open your MDT 2013 deployment share in Windows Explorer.
2. In the `$OEM$` folder, create the path `$1\Users\Public\Public Links`. If the `$OEM$` folder doesn’t exist, create it at the root of your deployment share.
3. Copy the bing.website and msn.website files from your desktop to `$OEM$\$1\Users\Public\Public Links` in your deployment share.
### Step 3: Copying .website files to target computers
After your operating system is installed on the target computer, you need to copy the .website files over so they can be pinned to the taskbar.
**To copy .website files to target computers**
1. In the **Deployment Workbench** of MDT 2013, open the deployment share containing the task sequence during which you want to deploy pinned websites, and then click **Task Sequences**.
2. In the right pane of the **Deployment Workbench**, right-click your task sequence (create a new one if you don’t have one yet), and click **Properties**.
3. In the **Task Sequence** tab, click the **Postinstall** folder, click **General** from the **Add** button, and then click **Run Command Line**.
4. Rename the newly created item to *Copy Files* and move it up to the top of the **Postinstall** folder.
5. In the **Command Line** box enter the following text, `xcopy "%DEPLOYROOT%\$OEM$\$1" "%OSDisk%\" /yqe`.
6. Click the **Apply** button to save your changes.
### Step 4: Pinning .website files to the Taskbar
With the .website files ready to copy to the **Public Links** folder on target computers for all users, the last step is to edit the Unattend.xml answer files to pin those .website files to the taskbar. You will need to complete the following steps for each task sequence during which you want to pin these websites to the taskbar.
**To pin .website files to the Taskbar**
1. Open the Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM).
2. On the **OS Info** tab, click **Edit Unattend.xml** to open the Unattend.xml file.
2. In the **Windows Image** pane, under **Components** and then **Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup**, right-click **TaskbarLinks**, and then click **Add Setting to Pass 7 oobeSystem**.
3. In the **TaskbarLinks Properties** pane, add the relative path to the target computer’s (not the deployment share’s) .website files that you created earlier. You can add up to six links to the **TaskbarLinks** item. For example, `%PUBLIC%\Users\Public\Public Links\Bing.website` and `%PUBLIC%\Users\Public\Public Links\MSN.website`
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save Answer File**, and then close Windows SIM.
5. To close the task sequence, click **OK**.
## Updating intranet websites for pinning
The MDT 2013 deployment share and task sequences are now ready to pin websites to the taskbar during deployment. This pinning feature can include intranet sites important in your organization.
You can make your intranet websites act more like applications by extending them to fully support the Windows 8.1 taskbar. This includes creating custom Jump Lists, thumbnail previews, and notifications. For info about extending your intranet websites, see [Pinned Sites Developer Documentation](/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/samples/gg491731(v=vs.85)) on MSDN. For more ideas about what to pin, see [Add-ons](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=398483) in the Internet Explorer Gallery.

# Deprecated document modes and Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Windows Internet Explorer 8 introduced document modes as a way to move from the proprietary coding of web features to a more standardized type of coding that could run on multiple browsers and devices. Starting with Windows 10, we’re deprecating document modes.
This means that while Internet Explorer 11 will continue to support document modes, Microsoft Edge won’t. And because of that, it also means that if you want to use Microsoft Edge, you’re going to have to update your legacy webpages and apps to support modern features, browsers, and devices.
>**Note**<br>
>For specific details about the technologies and APIs that are no longer supported in Microsoft Edge, see [A break from the past, part 2: Saying goodbye to ActiveX, VBScript, attachEvent](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=615953).
## What is document mode?
Each release after Internet Explorer 8 has helped with the transition by introducing additional document modes that emulated previously supported versions, while also introducing support for features defined by industry standards. During this time, numerous websites and apps were updated to the latest and greatest industry standards, while many other sites and apps continued to simply rely on document modes to work properly.
Because our goal with Microsoft Edge is to give users the best site and app viewing experience possible, we’ve decided to stop support for document modes. All websites and apps using legacy features and code will need to be updated to rely on the new modern standards and practices.
If you have legacy sites and apps that can’t be updated to modern standards, you can continue to use IE11 and document modes. We recommend that you use the **IE11 Standards document mode** because it represents the highest support available for modern standards. You should also use the HTML5 document type declaration to turn on the latest supported standards while using IE11:`<!DOCTYPE html>`.
## Document modes and IE11
The compatibility improvements made in IE11 lets older websites just work in the latest standards mode, by default, without requiring emulation of the previous browser behavior. Because older websites are now just working, we’ve decided that Internet Explorer 10 document mode will be the last new document mode. Instead, developers will need to move to using the IE11 document mode going forward.

## Known Issues with Internet Explorer 8 document mode in Enterprise Mode
The default document mode for Enterprise Mode is Internet Explorer 8. While this mode provides a strong emulation of that browser, it isn’t an exact match. For example, Windows Internet Explorer 9 fundamentally changed how document modes work with iframes and document modes can’t undo architectural changes. It’s also a known issue that Windows 10 supports GDI font rendering while using Enterprise Mode, but uses natural metrics once outside of Enterprise Mode.

# Edit the Enterprise Mode site list using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
You can use Internet Explorer 11 and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to change whether page rendering should use Enterprise Mode or the default Internet Explorer browser configuration. You can also add, remove, or delete associated comments.
If you need to edit a lot of websites, you probably don’t want to do it one at a time. Instead, you can edit your saved XML or TXT file and add the sites back again. For information about how to do this, depending on your operating system and schema version, see [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-2-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md) or [Add multiple sites to the Enterprise Mode site list using a file and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1)](add-multiple-sites-to-enterprise-mode-site-list-using-the-version-1-schema-and-enterprise-mode-tool.md).
**To change how your page renders**
1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, double-click the site you want to change.
2. Change the comment or the compatibility mode option.
3. Click **Save** to validate your changes and to add the updated information to your site list.<br>
If your change passes validation, it’s added to the global site list. If the update doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the update or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway. For more information about fixing validation issues, see [Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](fix-validation-problems-using-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
4. On the **File** menu, click **Save to XML**, and save the updated file.<br>
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your registry key. For more information about the registry key, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).

# Enable and disable add-ons using administrative templates and group policy
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Add-ons let your employees personalize Internet Explorer. You can manage IE add-ons using Group Policy and Group Policy templates.
There are four types of add-ons:
- **Search Providers.** Type a term and see suggestions provided by your search provider.
- **Accelerators.** Highlight text on a web page and then click the blue **Accelerator** icon to email, map, search, translate, or do many other tasks.
- **Web Slices.** Subscribe to parts of a website to get real-time information on the Favorites bar.
- **Toolbars.** Add features (like stock tickers) to your browser.
## Using the Local Group Policy Editor to manage group policy objects
You can use the Local Group Policy Editor to change how add-ons work in your organization.
**To manage add-ons**
1. In the Local Group Policy Editor, go to `Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer`.
2. Change any or all of these settings to match your company’s policy and requirements.
- Turn off add-on performance notifications
- Automatically activate newly installed add-ons
- Do not allow users to enable or disable add-ons
3. Go into the **Internet Control Panel\\Advance Page** folder, where you can change:
- Do not allow resetting IE settings
- Allow third-party browser extensions
4. Go into the **Security Features\\Add-on Management** folder, where you can change:
- Add-on List
- Deny all add-ons unless specifically allowed in the Add-on List
- Turn off Adobe Flash in IE and prevent applications from using IE technology to instantiate Flash objects
5. Close the Local Group Policy Editor when you’re done.
## Using the CLSID and Administrative Templates to manage group policy objects
Every add-on has a Class ID (CLSID) that you use to enable and disable specific add-ons, using Group Policy and Administrative Templates.
**To manage add-ons**
1. Get the CLSID for the add-on you want to enable or disable:
1. Open IE, click **Tools**, and then click **Manage Add-ons**.
2. Double-click the add-on you want to change.
3. In the More Information dialog, click **Copy** and then click **Close**.
4. Open Notepad and paste the information for the add-on.
5. On the Manage Add-ons windows, click **Close**.
6. On the Internet Options dialog, click **Close** and then close IE.
2. From the copied information, select and copy just the **Class ID** value.
> [!NOTE]
> You want to copy the curly brackets as well as the CLSID: **{47833539-D0C5-4125-9FA8-0819E2EAAC93}**.
3. Open the Group Policy Management Editor and go to: Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Security Features\Add-on Management.
<br>**-OR-**<br>
Open the Local Group Policy Editor and go to: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Security Features\Add-on Management.
4. Open the **Add-on List** Group Policy Object, select **Enabled**, and then click **Show**.<br>The Show Contents dialog appears.
6. In **Value Name**, paste the Class ID for your add-on, for example, **{47833539-D0C5-4125-9FA8-0819E2EAAC93}**.
6. In **Value**, enter one of the following:
- **0**. The add-on is disabled and your employees can’t change it.
- **1**. The add-on is enabled and your employees can’t change it.
- **2**. The add-on is enabled and your employees can change it.
7. Close the Show Contents dialog.
7. In the Group Policy editor, go to: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer.
8. Double-click **Automatically activate/enable newly installed add-ons** and select **Enabled**.<br><br>Enabling turns off the message prompting you to Enable or Don't enable the add-on.
7. Click **OK** twice to close the Group Policy editor.

# Enhanced Protected Mode problems with Internet Explorer
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Enhanced Protected Mode further restricts Protected Mode to deny potential attackers access to sensitive or personal information. If this feature is turned on, users might start to see errors asking them to turn it off, like **This webpage wants to run "npctrl.dll. If you trust this site, you can disable Enhanced Protected Mode for this site to run the control**. If your users click the **Disable** box, Enhanced Protected Mode is turned off for only the single visit to that specific site. After the user leaves the site, Enhanced Protected Mode is automatically turned back on.
You can use your company’s Group Policy to turn Enhanced Protected Mode on or off for all users. For more information, see the [Group policy objects and Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)](group-policy-objects-and-ie11.md) information in this guide.
For more information about Enhanced Protected Mode, see the [Enhanced Protected Mode](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=267512) post on IEBlog, and both the [Understanding Enhanced Protected Mode](/archive/blogs/ieinternals/understanding-enhanced-protected-mode) and the [Enhanced Protected Mode and Local Files](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=282663) blog posts on IEInternals.

# Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.1) to create and update your Enterprise Mode site list for devices running the v.1 version of the schema, or the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) to create and update your Enterprise Mode site list for devices running the v.2 version of the schema. We strongly recommend moving to the new schema, v.2. For more info, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md).
If you don't want to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you also have the option to update your XML schema using Notepad, or any other XML-editing app.
## Enterprise Mode schema v.1 example
The following is an example of the Enterprise Mode schema v.1. This schema can run on devices running Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Make sure that you don't specify a protocol when adding your URLs. Using a URL like `<domain>contoso.com</domain>` automatically applies to both `http://contoso.com` and `https://contoso.com`.
```xml
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">www.cpandl.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">www.woodgrovebank.com</domain>
<domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true">adatum.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">relecloud.com
<path exclude="false">/about</path>
</domain>
<domain exclude="false">fabrikam.com
<path exclude="true">/products</path>
</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain>contoso.com
<path docMode="7">/travel</path>
</domain>
<domain>fabrikam.com
<path docMode="7">/products</path>
</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
### Schema elements
This table includes the elements used by the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Element |Description |Supported browser |
|---------|---------|---------|
|&lt;rules&gt; | Root node for the schema.<br>**Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br> &lt;/rules&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;emie&gt; |The parent node for the Enterprise Mode section of the schema. All &lt;domain&gt; entries will have either IE8 Enterprise Mode or IE7 Enterprise Mode applied. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; <br> </pre><p> **or** <br> For IPv6 ranges: <pre class="syntax"><br>&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;[10.122.34.99]:8080&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; </pre><p> <br> **or**<br> For IPv4 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;[10.122.34.99]:8080&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/emie&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;docMode&gt; |The parent node for the document mode section of the section. All &lt;domain&gt; entries will get IE5 - IE11 document modes applied. If there's a &lt;domain&gt; element in the docMode section that uses the same value as a &lt;domain&gt; element in the emie section, the emie element is applied. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;rules version="205"&gt; <br> &lt;docmode&gt; <br> &lt;domain docMode="7"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt; <br> &lt;/docmode&gt;<br>&lt;/rules&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 |
|&lt;domain&gt; |A unique entry added for each site you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The first &lt;domain&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;domain&gt; elements that use the same value for the section. You can use port numbers for this element. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com:8080&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt; |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;path&gt; |A unique entry added for each path under a domain you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The &lt;path&gt; element is a child of the &lt;domain&gt; element. Additionally, the first &lt;path&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;path&gt; elements in the schema section.<br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"> <br/>&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path exclude="false"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><p> <br> Where `https://fabrikam.com` doesn't use IE8 Enterprise Mode, but `https://fabrikam.com/products` does. |Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
### Schema attributes
This table includes the attributes used by the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Attribute|Description|Supported browser|
|--- |--- |--- |
|version|Specifies the version of the Enterprise Mode Site List. This attribute is supported for the &lt;rules&gt; element.|Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|exclude|Specifies the domain or path that is excluded from getting the behavior applied. This attribute is supported on the &lt;domain&gt; and &lt;path&gt; elements.<br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path exclude="true"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt; </pre><p> Where `https://fabrikam.com` doesn't use IE8 Enterprise Mode, but `https://fabrikam.com/products` does.|Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|docMode|Specifies the document mode to apply. This attribute is only supported on &lt;domain&gt; or &lt;path&gt;elements in the &lt;docMode&gt; section.<br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;docMode&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path docMode="9"&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/docMode&gt;|Internet Explorer 11|
|doNotTransition| Specifies that the page should load in the current browser, otherwise it will open in IE11. This attribute is supported on all &lt;domain&gt; or &lt;path&gt; elements. If this attribute is absent, it defaults to false.<br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain doNotTransition=&quot;false&quot;&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path doNotTransition=&quot;true&quot;&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><p>Where `https://fabrikam.com` opens in the IE11 browser, but `https://fabrikam.com/products` loads in the current browser (eg. Microsoft Edge)|Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|forceCompatView|Specifies that the page should load in IE7 document mode (Compat View). This attribute is only supported on &lt;domain&gt; or &lt;path&gt; elements in the &lt;emie&gt; section. If the page is also configured to load in Enterprise Mode, it will load in IE7 Enterprise Mode. Otherwise (exclude=&quot;true&quot;), it will load in IE11's IE7 document mode. If this attribute is absent, it defaults to false. <br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain exclude=&quot;true&quot;&gt;fabrikam.com <br> &lt;path forcecompatview=&quot;true&quot;&gt;/products&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><p>Where `https://fabrikam.com` does not use Enterprise Mode, but `https://fabrikam.com/products` uses IE7 Enterprise Mode.|Internet Explorer 11|
### Using Enterprise Mode and document mode together
If you want to use both Enterprise Mode and document mode together, you need to be aware that &lt;emie&gt; entries override &lt;docMode&gt; entries for the same domain.
For example, say you want all of the sites in the contoso.com domain to open using IE8 Enterprise Mode, except test.contoso.com, which needs to open in document mode 11. Because Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document mode, if you want test.contoso.com to open using document mode, you'll need to explicitly add it as an exclusion to the &lt;emie&gt; parent node.
```xml
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">contoso.com</domain>
<domain exclude="true">test.contoso.com</domain>
</emie>
<docMode>
<domain docMode="11">test.contoso.com</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
### What not to include in your schema
We recommend that you not add any of the following items to your schema because they can make your compatibility list behave in unexpected ways:
- Don’t use protocols. For example, `http://`, `https://`, or custom protocols. They break parsing.
- Don’t use wildcards.
- Don’t use query strings, ampersands break parsing.
## How to use trailing slashes
You can use trailing slashes at the path-level, but not at the domain-level:
- **Domain-level.** Don’t add trailing slashes to a domain, it breaks parsing.
- **Path-level.** Adding a trailing slash to a path means that the path ends at that point. By not adding a trailing slash, the rule applies to all of the sub-paths.
**Example**
```xml
<domain exclude="true">contoso.com
<path exclude="false">/about/</path>
</domain>
```
In this example, `contoso.com/about/careers` will use the default version of Internet Explorer, even though `contoso.com/about/` uses Enterprise Mode.
## How to target specific sites
If you want to target specific sites in your organization.
|Targeted site |Example |Explanation |
|--------------|--------|------------|
|You can specify subdomains in the domain tag. |<code>&lt;docMode&gt;<br>&lt;domain docMode="5"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;domain docMode="9"&gt;info.contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;docMode&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com uses document mode 5.</li><li>info.contoso.com uses document mode 9.</li><li>test.contoso.com also uses document mode 5.</li></ul>|
|You can specify exact URLs by listing the full path. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="false"&gt;bing.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="false" forceCompatView="true"&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;emie&gt;</code>|<ul><li>bing.com uses IE8 Enterprise Mode.</li><li>contoso.com uses IE7 Enterprise Mode.</li></ul>|
|You can nest paths underneath domains. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;contoso.com<br>&lt;path exclude="false"&gt;/about&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;path exclude="true"&gt;<br>/about/business&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com will use the default version of IE.</li><li>contoso.com/about and everything underneath that node will load in Enterprise Mode, except contoso.com/about/business, which will load in the default version of IE.</li></ul> |
|You can’t add a path underneath a path. The file will still be parsed, but the sub-path will be ignored. |<code>&lt;emie&gt;<br>&lt;domain exclude="true"&gt;contoso.com<br>&lt;path&gt;/about<br>&lt;path exclude="true"&gt;/business&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/path&gt;<br>&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</code> |<ul><li>contoso.com will use the default version of IE.</li><li>contoso.com/about and everything underneath that node will load in Enterprise Mode, including contoso.com/about/business because the last rule is ignored.</li></ul> |

# Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager to create and update your site list for devices running Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10, using the version 2.0 (v.2) of the Enterprise Mode schema. If you don't want to use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you also have the option to update your XML schema using Notepad, or any other XML-editing app.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> If you're running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 and you've been using the version 1.0 (v.1) of the schema, you can continue to do so, but you won't get the benefits that come with the updated schema. For info about the v.1 schema, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md).
## Enterprise Mode schema v.2 updates
Because of the schema changes, you can't combine the old version (v.1) with the new version (v.2) of the schema. If you look at your XML file, you can tell which version you're using by:
- &lt;rules&gt;. If your schema root node includes this key, you're using the v.1 version of the schema.
- &lt;site-list&gt;. If your schema root node includes this key, you're using the v.2 version of the schema.
You can continue to use the v.1 version of the schema on Windows 10, but you won't have the benefits of the new v.2 version schema updates and new features. Additionally, saving the v.1 version of the schema in the new Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) automatically updates the file to use the v.2 version of the schema.
### Enterprise Mode v.2 schema example
The following is an example of the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Make sure that you don't specify a protocol when adding your URLs. Using a URL like `<url="contoso.com">`, automatically applies to both `http://contoso.com` and `https://contoso.com`.

### Updated schema elements
This table includes the elements used by the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema.
|Element |Description |Supported browser |
|---------|---------|---------|
|&lt;site-list&gt; |A new root node with this text is using the updated v.2 version of the schema. It replaces &lt;rules&gt;. <br> **Example** <br> <pre class="syntax">&lt;site-list version="205"&gt;<br> &lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br> &lt;/site&gt;<br>&lt;/site-list&gt;</pre> | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;site&gt; |A unique entry added for each site you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The first &lt;site&gt; element will overrule any additional &lt;site&gt; elements that use the same value for the &lt;url&gt; element. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;default&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre> <br> **or** For IPv4 ranges: <br> <pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="10.122.34.99:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> <br> **or** For IPv6 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="[10.122.34.99]:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> <br> You can also use the self-closing version, &lt;url="contoso.com" /&gt;, which also sets:<ul><li>&lt;compat-mode&gt;default&lt;/compat-mode&gt;</li><li>&lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;</li>| Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
|&lt;compat-mode&gt; |A child element that controls what compatibility setting is used for specific sites or domains. This element is only supported in IE11. <br> **Example** <pre class="syntax"><br>&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre> **or** <br> For IPv4 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="10.122.34.99:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> **or** For IPv6 ranges:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="[10.122.34.99]:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br>&lt;site&gt;</pre><p> Where<ul><li>**IE8Enterprise.** Loads the site in IE8 Enterprise Mode.<br>This element is required for sites included in the **EmIE** section of the v.1 schema and is needed to load in IE8 Enterprise Mode.</li><p><li>**IE7Enterprise.** Loads the site in IE7 Enterprise Mode.<br>This element is required for sites included in the **EmIE** section of the v.1 schema and is needed to load in IE7 Enterprise Mode<p>**Important**<br>This tag replaces the combination of the `"forceCompatView"="true"` attribute and the list of sites specified in the EmIE section of the v.1 version of the schema.<li>**IE<i>[x]</i>**. Where <i>[x]</i> is the document mode number into which the site loads.<li>**Default or not specified.** Loads the site using the default compatibility mode for the page. In this situation, X-UA-compatible meta tags or HTTP headers are honored.</li> |Internet Explorer 11 |
|&lt;open-in&gt; |A child element that controls what browser is used for sites. This element supports the **Open in IE11** or **Open in Microsoft Edge** experiences, for devices running Windows 10.<br> **Examples**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt; <br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre><p> <br> Where<ul><li><b>IE11.</b> Opens the site in IE11, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.<li><b>MSEdge.</b> Opens the site in Microsoft Edge, regardless of which browser is opened by the employee.<li><b>None or not specified.</b> Opens in whatever browser the employee chooses.</li> | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge |
### Updated schema attributes
The &lt;url&gt; attribute, as part of the &lt;site&gt; element in the v.2 version of the schema, replaces the &lt;domain&gt; element from the v.1 version of the schema.
|Attribute|Description|Supported browser|
|---------|---------|---------|
|allow-redirect|A boolean attribute of the &lt;open-in&gt; element that controls the behavior for redirected sites. Setting this attribute to "true" indicates that the site will open in IE11 or Microsoft Edge even if the site is navigated to as part of a HTTP or meta refresh redirection chain. Omitting the attribute is equivalent to "false" (sites in redirect chain will not open in another browser).<br>**Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com/travel"&gt;<br> &lt;open-in allow-redirect="true"&gt;IE11 &lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre> In this example, if `https://contoso.com/travel` is encountered in a redirect chain in Microsoft Edge, it will be opened in Internet Explorer. | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|version |Specifies the version of the Enterprise Mode Site List. This attribute is supported for the &lt;site-list&gt; element. | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
|url|Specifies the URL (and port number using standard port conventions) to which the child elements apply. The URL can be a domain, sub-domain, or any path URL.<br> **Note**<br> Make sure that you don't specify a protocol. Using &lt;site url="contoso.com"&gt; applies to both `http://contoso.com` and `https://contoso.com`. <br> **Example**<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com:8080"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt; <br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre>In this example, going to `https://contoso.com:8080` using Microsoft Edge, causes the site to open in IE11 and load in IE8 Enterprise Mode. | Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge|
### Deprecated attributes
These v.1 version schema attributes have been deprecated in the v.2 version of the schema:
|Deprecated attribute|New attribute|Replacement example|
|--- |--- |--- |
|forceCompatView|&lt;compat-mode>|Replace &lt;forceCompatView="true"> with &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE7Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode>|
|docMode|&lt;compat-mode&gt;|Replace &lt;docMode="IE5"&gt; with &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE5&lt;/compat-mode&gt;|
|doNotTransition|&lt;open-in&gt;|Replace:<br> &lt;doNotTransition="true"&gt; with &lt;open-in&gt;none&lt;/open-in&gt;|
|&lt;domain&gt; and &lt;path&gt;|&lt;site&gt;|Replace:<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt;<br> &lt;domain&gt;contoso.com&lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre>With:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com"/&gt; <br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE8Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;</pre>**-AND-** <br>Replace:<pre class="syntax">&lt;emie&gt; <br> &lt;domain exclude="true" donotTransition="true"&gt;contoso.com <br> &lt;path forceCompatView="true"&gt;/about&lt;/path&gt;<br> &lt;/domain&gt;<br>&lt;/emie&gt;</pre><br> With:<pre class="syntax">&lt;site url="contoso.com/about"&gt;<br> &lt;compat-mode&gt;IE7Enterprise&lt;/compat-mode&gt;<br> &lt;open-in&gt;IE11&lt;/open-in&gt;<br>&lt;/site&gt;|
While the old, replaced attributes aren't supported in the v.2 version of the schema, they'll continue to work in the v.1 version of the schema. If, however, you're using the v.2 version of the schema and these attributes are still there, the v.2 version schema takes precedence. We don’t recommend combining the two schemas, and instead recommend that you move to the v.2 version of the schema to take advantage of the new features.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Saving your v.1 version of the file using the new Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2) automatically updates the XML to the new v.2 version of the schema.
### What not to include in your schema
We recommend that you not add any of the following items to your schema because they can make your compatibility list behave in unexpected ways:
- Don’t use protocols. For example, `http://`, `https://`, or custom protocols. They break parsing.
- Don’t use wildcards.
- Don’t use query strings, ampersands break parsing.

# Export your Enterprise Mode site list from the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
After you create your Enterprise Mode site list in the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, you can export the contents to an Enterprise Mode (.EMIE) file. This file includes all of your URLs, including your compatibility mode selections and should be stored somewhere safe. If your list gets deleted by mistake you can easily import this file and return everything back to when this file was last saved.
**Important**<br> 
This file is not intended for distribution to your managed devices. Instead, it is only for transferring data and comments from one manager to another. For example, if one administrator leaves and passes the existing data to another administrator. Internet Explorer doesn’t read this file.
**To export your compatibility list**
1. On the **File** menu of the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **Export**.
2. Export the file to your selected location. For example, `C:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\sites.emie`.

title: Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list (Internet Explorer 11 for IT Pros)

# Fix web compatibility issues using document modes and the Enterprise Mode site list
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
The Internet Explorer 11 Enterprise Mode site list lets you specify document modes for specific websites, helping you fix compatibility issues without changing a single line of code on the site. This addition to the site list is a continuation of our commitment to help you upgrade and stay up-to-date on the latest version of Internet Explorer, while still preserving your investments in existing apps.
## What does this mean for me?
Enterprises can have critical apps that are coded explicitly for a specific browser version and that might not be in their direct control, making it very difficult and expensive to update to modern standards or newer browser versions. Because you can decide which URLs should open using specific document modes, this update helps ensure better compatibility, faster upgrades, and reduced testing and fixing costs.
## How does this fix work?
You can continue to use your legacy and orphaned web apps, by specifying a document mode in the centralized Enterprise Mode site list. Then, when IE11 goes to a site on your list, the browser loads the page in the specified document mode just as it would if it were specified through an X-UA-Compatible meta tag on the site. For more information about document modes and X-UA-compatible headers, see [Defining document compatibility](/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/compatibility/cc288325(v=vs.85)).
**Important**<br>
Enterprise Mode takes precedence over document modes, so sites that are already included in the Enterprise Mode site list won’t be affected by this update and will continue to load in Enterprise Mode, as usual.
### When do I use document modes versus Enterprise Mode?
While the `<emie>` functionality provides great compatibility for you on Windows Internet Explorer 8 or Windows Internet Explorer 7, the new `<docMode>` capabilities can help you stay up-to-date regardless of which versions of IE are running in your environment. Because of this, we recommend starting your testing process like this:
- If your enterprise primarily uses Internet Explorer 8 or Internet Explorer 7 start testing using Enterprise Mode.
- If your enterprise primarily uses Windows Internet Explorer 9 or Internet Explorer 10, start testing using the various document modes.
Because you might have multiple versions of IE deployed, you might need to use both Enterprise Mode and document modes to effectively move to IE11.
### Test your sites for document mode compatibility
To see if this fix might help you, run through this process one step at a time, for each of your problematic sites:
1. Go to a site having compatibility problems, press **F12** to open the **F12 Developer Tools**, and go to the **Emulation** tool.
![Emulation tool showing document mode selection.](images/docmode-f12.png)
2. Starting with the **11 (Default)** option, test your broken scenario.<br>
If that doesn’t work, continue down to the next lowest document mode, stopping as soon as you find a document mode that fixes your problems. For more information about the Emulation tool, see [Emulate browsers, screen sizes, and GPS locations](/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/samples/dn255001(v=vs.85)).
3. If none of the document modes fix your issue, change the **Browser Profile** to **Enterprise**, pick the mode you want to test with starting with **8** (IE8 Enterprise Mode), and then test your broken scenario.
### Add your site to the Enterprise Mode site list
After you’ve figured out the document mode that fixes your compatibility problems, you can add the site to your Enterprise Mode site list.
**Note**<br>
There are two versions of the Enterprise Mode site list schema and the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, based on your operating system. For more info about the schemas, see [Enterprise Mode schema v.2 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-2-guidance.md) or [Enterprise Mode schema v.1 guidance](enterprise-mode-schema-version-1-guidance.md). For more info about the different site list management tools, see [Use the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](use-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
**To add your site to the site list**
1. Open the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, and click **Add**.
![Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, showing the available modes.](images/emie-listmgr.png)
2. Add the **URL** and pick the document mode from the **Launch in** box. This should be the same document mode you found fixed your problems while testing the site.<br>
Similar to Enterprise Mode, you can specify a document mode for a particular web path—such as contoso.com/ERP—or at a domain level. In the above, the entire contoso.com domain loads in Enterprise Mode, while microsoft.com is forced to load into IE8 Document Mode and bing.com loads in IE11.
**Note**<br>
For more information about Enterprise Mode, see [What is Enterprise Mode?](what-is-enterprise-mode.md) For more information about the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager and how to add sites to your site list, see [Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](use-the-enterprise-mode-site-list-manager.md).
### Review your Enterprise Mode site list
Take a look at your Enterprise Mode site list and make sure everything is the way you want it. The next step will be to turn the list on and start to use it in your company. The Enterprise Mode Site List Manager will look something like:
![Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, showing the different modes.](images/emie-sitelistmgr.png)
And the underlying XML code will look something like:
``` xml
<rules version="1">
<emie>
<domain exclude="false">bing.com<path exclude="false" forceCompatView="true">/images</path></domain>
<domain exclude="true">www.msn.com<path exclude="true">/news</path></domain>
</emie>
<docmode />
<docMode>
<domain docMode="edge">timecard</domain>
<domain docMode="edge">tar</domain>
<domain docMode="9">msdn.microsoft.com</domain>
</docMode>
</rules>
```
### Turn on Enterprise Mode and using your site list
If you haven’t already turned on Enterprise Mode for your company, you’ll need to do that. You can turn on Enterprise Mode using Group Policy or your registry. For specific instructions and details, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list.md).
## Turn off default Compatibility View for your intranet sites
By default, IE11 uses the **Display intranet sites in Compatibility View** setting. However, we’ve heard your feedback and know that you might want to turn this functionality off so you can continue to upgrade your web apps to more modern standards.
To help you move forward, you can now use the Enterprise Mode site list to specify sites or web paths to use the IE7 document mode, which goes down to IE5 “Quirks” mode if the page doesn’t have an explicit `DOCTYPE` tag. Using this document mode effectively helps you provide the Compatibility View functionality for single sites or a group of sites, which after thorough testing, can help you turn off Compatibility View as the default setting for your intranet sites.

# Fix validation problems using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10
- Windows 8.1
- Windows 7
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)
When you add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list entries, they’re validated by the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager before they’re entered into your global list. If a site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll have a couple of options to address it.
There are typically 3 types of errors you’ll see:
- **Validation**. The site caused a validation error. Typically these occur because of typos, malformed URLs, or access-related issues. You can pick the site, click **Add to list** to ignore the problem and accept the site to your site list, or you can click **OK** to keep the site off of your site list.
- **Duplicate**. The site already exists in the global compatibility list with a different compatibility mode. For example, the site was originally rendered in Enterprise Mode, but this update is for Default IE. You can pick the site, click **Add to list** to ignore the problem and accept the change to your site list, or you can click **OK** to keep your original compatibility mode.
- **Redirection**. This is the least common type of validation error. Typically in this situation, a site redirects from an easy-to-remember URL to a longer URL. Like `\\tar` redirects to `\\timecard`. You can add the short URL or you can add both the short and long versions to your list.<br>
Another possibility is that redirection happens multiple times, with an intermediary site experiencing compatibility issues. For example, an employee types a short URL that then redirects multiple times, finally ending up on a non-intranet site. In this situation, you might want to add the intermediary URLs to your Enterprise Mode site list, in case there’s logic in one of them that has compatibility issues.

# Group Policy, Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM), and Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM) is an add-on license that available for the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP). This license gives you change control and a role assignment-model that helps optimize Group Policy management and reduce the risk of widespread failures.
From AGPM you can:
- **Edit GPOs outside of your production environment.** Your GPOs are stored in an outside archive for editing, reviewing, and approving. Then, when you deploy, AGPM moves the GPOs to your production environment.
- **Assign roles to your employees.** You can assign 3 roles to your employees or groups, including:
- **Reviewer.** Can view and compare GPOs in the archive. This role can't edit or deploy GPOs.
- **Editor.** Can view, compare, check-in and out, and edit GPOs in the archive. This role can also request GPO deployment.
- **Approver.** Can approve GPO creation and deployment to the production environment.
- **Manage your GPO lifecycle with change control features.** You can use the available version-control, history, and auditing features to help you manage your GPOs while moving through your archive, to your editing process, and finally to your GPO deployment.
**Note**<br>
For more information about AGPM, and to get the license, see [Advanced Group Policy Management 4.0 Documents](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=13975).

# Group Policy, the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), and Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
A Microsoft Management Console (MMC)-based tool that uses scriptable interfaces to manage Group Policy. The 32-bit and 64-bit versions are included with Windows Server R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2012 R2.
## Why use the GPMC?
The GPMC lets you:
- Import, export, copy, paste, backup and restore GPOs.
- Search for existing GPOs.
- Create reports, including providing the Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) data in HTML reports that you can save and print.
- Use simulated RSoP data to prototype your Group Policy before implementing it in the production environment.
- Obtain RSoP data to view your GPO interactions and to troubleshoot your Group Policy deployment.
- Create migration tables to let you import and copy GPOs across domains and across forests. Migration tables are files that map references to users, groups, computers, and Universal Naming Convention (UNC) paths in the source GPO to new values in the destination GPO.
- Create scriptable interfaces to support all of the operations available within the GPMC. You can't use scripts to edit individual policy settings in a GPO.
For more information about the GPMC, see [Group Policy Management Console](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/cc753298(v=ws.11)) on TechNet.
## Searching for Group Policy settings
To search for Group Policy settings in the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), use the [Group Policy Search tool](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=279857). To find the Group Policy settings, click **Windows Components**, and then click **Internet Explorer**.

# Group Policy management tools
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Group Policy, based on Microsoft Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), lets you manage your organization's computer and user settings as part of your Group Policy objects (GPOs), which are added and changed in the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). GPOs can include registry-based Administrative Template policy settings, security settings, software deployment information, scripts, folder redirection, and preferences. The most effective way to target a specific GPO is to use Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) filters. Like, creating a WMI filter that applies a GPO only to computers with a specific make and model.
By using Group Policy, you can set up a policy setting once, and then copy that setting onto many computers. For example, you can set up multiple Internet Explorer 11 security settings in a GPO that's linked to a domain, and then apply all of those settings to every computer in the domain.
**Note**<br>  
For more information about Group Policy, see the [Group Policy TechCenter](/windows/deployment/deploy-whats-new). This site provides links to the latest technical documentation, videos, and downloads for Group Policy.
## Managing settings with GPOs
After deploying IE11 to your organization, you can continue to manage the browser settings by using Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) together with the following Group Policy-related setting management groups:
- [Administrative templates and Internet Explorer 11](administrative-templates-and-ie11.md). Used to manage registry-based policies and options.
- [Group policy preferences and Internet Explorer 11](group-policy-preferences-and-ie11.md). Used to set up and manage options that can be changed by the user after installation.
**Note**<br>
Whenever possible, we recommend that you manage IE11 using Administrative Templates, because these settings are always written to secure policy branches in the registry. In addition, we recommend that you deploy using standard user accounts instead of letting your users log on to their computers as administrators. This helps to prevent your users from making unwanted changes to their systems or overriding Group Policy settings.
Users won't be able to use the IE11 user interface or the registry to change any managed settings on their computers. However, they will be able to change many of the preferences associated with the settings you set up using the Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 (IEAK 11).
## Which GPO tool should I use?
You can use any of these tools to create, manage, view, and troubleshoot Group Policy objects (GPOs). For information about each, see:
- [Group Policy, the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), and Internet Explorer 11](group-policy-and-group-policy-mgmt-console-ie11.md). Provides a single location to manage all GPOs, WMI filters, and Group Policy–related permissions across multiple forests in an organization.
- [Group Policy, the Local Group Policy Editor, and Internet Explorer 11](group-policy-and-local-group-policy-editor-ie11.md). Provides a user interface that lets you edit settings within individual GPOs.
- [Group Policy, Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM), and Internet Explorer 11](group-policy-and-advanced-group-policy-mgmt-ie11.md). An add-on license for the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP) that helps to extend Group Policy for Software Assurance customers.
- [Group Policy, Windows Powershell, and Internet Explorer 11](group-policy-windows-powershell-ie11.md). A command-line shell and scripting language that helps automate Windows and application administration on a single computer locally, or across many computers remotely.

# Group Policy, Shortcut Extensions, and Internet Explorer 11
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Group Policy includes the Shortcuts preference extension, which lets you configure shortcuts to:
- **File system objects.** Traditional shortcuts that link to apps, files, folders, drives, shares, or computers. For example, linking a shortcut to an app from the **Start** screen.
- **URLs.** Shortcuts to webpages or FTP sites. For example, a link to your intranet site from your employee's **Favorites** folder.
- **Shell objects.** Shortcuts to objects that appear in the shell namespace, such as printers, desktop items, Control Panel items, the Recycle Bin, and so on.
## How do I configure shortcuts?
You can create and configure shortcuts for any domain-based Group Policy Object (GPO) in the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).
**To create a new Shortcut preference item**
1. Open GPMC, right-click the Group Policy object that needs the new shortcut extension, and click **Edit**.
2. From **Computer Configuration** or **User Configuration**, go to **Preferences**, and then go to **Windows Settings**.
3. Right-click **Shortcuts**, click **New**, and then choose **Shortcut**.
4. Choose what the shortcut should do, including **Create**, **Delete**, **Replace**, or **Update**.
5. Type the required shortcut settings and your comments into the **Description** box, and click **OK**.
For more information about shortcut extensions, including step-by-step guidance, see [Shortcuts Extension](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/cc730592(v=ws.11)) and [Configure a Shortcut Item](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/cc753580(v=ws.11)).

# Internet Explorer 11 delivery through automatic updates
[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 workloads end of support for IE11](../includes/microsoft-365-ie-end-of-support.md)]
Internet Explorer 11 makes browsing the web faster, easier, safer, and more reliable than ever. To help customers become more secure and up-to-date, Microsoft will distribute Internet Explorer 11 through Automatic Updates and the Windows Update and Microsoft Update sites. Internet Explorer 11 will be available for users of the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1), and 64-bit version of Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. This article provides an overview of the delivery process and options available for IT administrators to control how and when Internet Explorer 11 is deployed to their organization through Automatic Updates.
- [Automatic updates delivery process](#automatic-updates-delivery-process)
- [Internet Explorer 11 automatic upgrades](#internet-explorer-11-automatic-upgrades)
- [Options for blocking automatic delivery](#options-for-blocking-automatic-delivery)
- [Prevent automatic installation of Internet Explorer 11 with WSUS](#prevent-automatic-installation-of-internet-explorer-11-with-wsus)
## Automatic updates delivery process
Internet Explorer 11 only downloads and installs if it’s available for delivery through Automatic Updates; and Automatic Updates only offer Internet Explorer 11
to users with local administrator accounts. User’s without local administrator accounts won’t be prompted to install the update and will continue using their
current version of Internet Explorer.
Internet Explorer 11 replaces Internet Explorer 8, Internet Explorer 9, or Internet Explorer 10. If you decide you don’t want Internet Explorer 11, and you’re running Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1, you can uninstall it from the **View installed updates** section of the **Uninstall an update** page of the Control Panel.
> [!NOTE]
> If a user installs Internet Explorer 11 and then removes it, it won’t be re-offered to that computer through Automatic Updates. Instead, the user will have to manually re-install the app.
## Internet Explorer 11 automatic upgrades
Internet Explorer 11 is offered through Automatic Updates and Windows Update as an Important update. Users running Windows 7 SP1, who have chosen to download and install updates automatically through Windows Update, are automatically upgraded to Internet Explorer 11.
Users who were automatically upgraded to Internet Explorer 11 can decide to uninstall Internet Explorer 11. However, Internet Explorer 11 will still appear as an optional update through Windows Update.
## Options for blocking automatic delivery
If you use Automatic Updates in your company, but want to stop your users from automatically getting Internet Explorer 11, do one of the following:
- **Download and use the Internet Explorer 11 Blocker Toolkit.** Includes a Group Policy template and a script that permanently blocks Internet Explorer 11 from being offered by Windows Update or Microsoft Update as a high-priority update. You can download this kit from the [Microsoft Download Center](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=40722).
> [!NOTE]
> The toolkit won't stop users with local administrator accounts from manually installing Internet Explorer 11. Using this toolkit also prevents your users from receiving automatic upgrades from Internet Explorer 8, Internet Explorer 9, or Internet Explorer 10 to Internet Explorer 11. For more information, see the [Internet Explorer 11 Blocker Toolkit frequently asked questions](../ie11-faq/faq-ie11-blocker-toolkit.yml).
- **Use an update management solution to control update deployment.**
If you already use an update management solution, like [Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)](/windows-server/administration/windows-server-update-services/get-started/windows-server-update-services-wsus) or the more advanced [Microsoft Configuration Manager](/previous-versions/system-center/system-center-2012-R2/gg682129(v=technet.10)), you should use that instead of the Internet Explorer Blocker Toolkit.
> [!NOTE]
> If you use WSUS to manage updates, and Update Rollups are configured for automatic installation, Internet Explorer will automatically install throughout your company.
Additional information on Internet Explorer 11, including a Readiness Toolkit, technical overview, in-depth feature summary, and Internet Explorer 11 download is available on the [Internet Explorer 11 page of the Microsoft Edge IT Center](https://technet.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/dn262703.aspx).
## Availability of Internet Explorer 11
Automatic Updates will start to distribute Internet Explorer 11 shortly after the final release of the product and will distribute it through the Microsoft Configuration Manager and WSUS.
## Prevent automatic installation of Internet Explorer 11 with WSUS
Internet Explorer 11 will be released to WSUS as an Update Rollup package. Therefore, if you’ve configured WSUS to “auto-approve” Update Rollup packages, it’ll be automatically approved and installed. To stop Internet Explorer 11 from being automatically approved for installation, you need to:
1. Click **Start**, click **Administrative Tools**, and then click **Microsoft
Windows Server Update Services 3.0**.
2. Expand *ComputerName*, and then click **Options**.
3. Click **Automatic Approvals**.
4. Click the rule that automatically approves an update that is classified as
Update Rollup, and then click **Edit.**
> [!NOTE]
> If you don’t see a rule like this, you most likely haven’t configured WSUS to automatically approve Update Rollups for installation. In this situation, you don’t have to do anything else.
5. Click the **Update Rollups** property under the **Step 2: Edit the properties (click an underlined value)** section.
> [!NOTE]
> The properties for this rule will resemble the following:<ul><li>When an update is in Update Rollups</li><li>Approve the update for all computers</li></ul>
6. Clear the **Update Rollup** check box, and then click **OK**.
7. Click **OK** to close the **Automatic Approvals** dialog box.<p>After the new Internet Explorer 11 package is available for download, you should manually synchronize the new package to your WSUS server, so that when you re-enable auto-approval it won’t be automatically installed.
8. Click **Start**, click **Administrative Tools**, and then click **Microsoft Windows Server Update Services 3.0**.
9. Expand *ComputerName*, and then click **Synchronizations**.
10. Click **Synchronize Now**.
11. Expand *ComputerName*, expand **Updates**, and then click **All Updates**.
12. Choose **Unapproved** in the **Approval** drop down box.
13. Check to make sure that Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 is listed as an unapproved update.
> [!NOTE]
> There may be multiple updates, depending on the imported language and operating system updates.
**Optional**
If you need to reset your Update Rollups packages to auto-approve, do this:
1. Click **Start**, click **Administrative Tools**, and then click **Microsoft Windows Server Update Services 3.0**.
2. Expand *ComputerName*, and then click **Options**.
3. Click **Automatic Approvals**.
4. Click the rule that automatically approves updates of different classifications, and then click **Edit**.
5. Click the **Update Rollups** property under the **Step 2: Edit the properties (click an underlined value)** section.
6. Check the **Update Rollups** check box, and then click **OK**.
7. Click **OK** to close the **Automatic Approvals** dialog box.
> [!NOTE]
> Because auto-approval rules are only evaluated when an update is first imported into WSUS, turning this rule back on after the Internet Explorer 11 update has been imported and synchronized to the server won’t cause this update to be auto-approved.
