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), 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 users can easily view this site list by typing about:compat in either Microsoft Edge or IE11. -### Scenarios - -Certain sites or web apps still use ActiveX controls, Browser Helper Objects, VBScript, or other legacy technology, which Microsoft Edge does not support. If you have web sites or web apps that still use this technology and need IE11 to run, you must use Enterprise Mode and the Enterprise Mode Site List to address common compatibility issues with legacy apps. Enterprise Mode is a compatibility -mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 devices. - -### Instructions - - -You build your Enterprise Mode list with the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager and apply it with Group Policy. - -To turn it on for IE 11, you enable [Use the Enterprise Mode IE website list](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/ie11-deploy-guide/turn-on-enterprise-mode-and-use-a-site-list), -which is the equivalent to this Microsoft Edge policy. - ->[!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 is stored locally on your user's computer so if the centralized file location is unavailable, they can still use Enterprise Mode. - -- [Step 1.

Add sites to your list - -1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **Add**. - -2. In the **URL** box, type or paste the URL for the website experiencing compatibility problems, like *\*.com or *\*.com/*\*.

You do not need to include the `http://` or `https://` designation. The tool automatically tries both versions during validation. - -3. In the **Notes about URL**, enter any comments about the website.

Administrators can only see comments while they are in this tool. - -4. Click in the **Open in IE** column next to the URL that should open in IE11.

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, Enterprise Mode is automatically selected. - -5. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.

If your site passes validation, it is added to the global compatibility list. If the site fails to pass validation, an error message displays explaining the problem. You can 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**.

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 Group Policy setting. - -#### Step 4. Send all intranet sites to Internet Explorer 11 - -Enabling the Send all intranet sites to Internet Explorer 11 policy automatically opens all intranet sites in IE11, even if the users have Microsoft Edge as their default browser. - -1. In Group Policy Editor, navigate to:

**Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\File Explorer\\Set a default associations configuration file** - -2. Click **Enabled** and then refresh the policy and then vew the affected sites in Microsoft Edge.

A message displays saying that the page needs to open in IE. At the same time, the page opens in IE11 automatically; in a new frame if it is not yet running, or in a new tab. - -### Troubleshooting - -- If an XML already exists, make sure it is syntactically correct. - -- If an update or delete operation failed, check if the entry already exists in the site list. - -- If a user is not able to sign in, the account might not have access. Check if the account is marked as active. - -- Check if the Enterprise Mode Site List is loaded correctly by browsing to "about:compat" in both Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer. Deselect the Microsoft Compatibility List to see your custom entries.
