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: - <rules>. If your schema root node includes this key, you're using the v.1 version of the schema. - <site-list>. 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 ``, automatically applies to both `http://contoso.com` and `https://contoso.com`. ```xml EnterpriseSitelistManager 10240 20150728.135021 IE8Enterprise MSEdge Default IE11 IE7Enterprise IE11 Default IE11 Default None IE8Enterprise" None IE7 IE11 IE8Enterprise IE11 IE7 IE11 ``` ### Updated schema elements This table includes the elements used by the v.2 version of the Enterprise Mode schema. |Element |Description |Supported browser | |---------|---------|---------| |<site-list> |A new root node with this text is using the updated v.2 version of the schema.

</site-list>
| Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge | |<site> |A unique entry added for each site you want to put on the Enterprise Mode site list. The first <site> element will overrule any additional <site> elements that use the same value for the <url> element.
**Example** 
<site url="contoso.com">
  <compat-mode>default</compat-mode>
  <open-in>none</open-in>
</site>
