This particular question has been a major talking point amongst various IT professionals, as many organizations are looking for a web browser that provides access to legacy intranet sites that these businesses frequently rely on.
The short answer to this question is that both Internet Explorer and Edge will be available for use in Windows 10. Users can then enable Enterprise Mode, which not only crafts an experience that is very similar to IE8, but also allows for the seamless transition of legacy apps to the new operation system.
Here is a step-by-step guide that will show you how to activate Enterprise Mode on the Technical Preview of Windows 10.
- Press Windows Key + R on your keyboard to open the local group policy editor.
- Type gpedit.msc into the Run dialog, and then press Enter.
- In the Local Group Policy Editor, navigate over to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer.
- Look for “Let users turn on and use Enterprise Mode from the Tools menu option,” and double-click on that option.
- Click on Enabled in the dialog windows. This allows users to enable Enterprise Mode manually.
Note: IT administrators can also use the website list option to automatically enable the Use the Enterprise Mode via an IT provided list of websites.
The list can be saved on a website or on the local computer. - Click on Apply, then on OK to accept and confirm the changes.
- Close the Group Policy Editor.
- If there are any open IE 11 browser windows, close them.
- To activate Enterprise Mode, open a new IE 11 window
- Press the Alt key on your keyboard and navigate over to the Tools menu.
- Select Enterprise Mode from the menu.
