How do I stop Edge from removing pages from IE mode?

Hi @******@ccslasvegas.com,

How to I stop Edge from removing pages from IE mode permanently?

You can implement your requirement by configuring group policies. Follow the steps below:

1. Download and install the Microsoft Edge administrative template

Navigate to https://aka.ms/EdgeEnterprise and download the policy files, and then follow this doc to install it correctly: Add the administrative template to an individual computer.

2. Prepare the configuration file sitelist.xml

Create an xml type file and copy these in file :

<site-list version="1">   
  <site url="https://www.google.com.hk/">     
    <compat-mode>IE11</compat-mode>     
    <open-in>IE11</open-in>   
  </site>   
  <site url="<your site address>">     
    <compat-mode>IE11</compat-mode>     
    <open-in>IE11</open-in>   
  </site> 
  <site>
    ...
  </site>
</site-list>

3. Configure the following two group policies:
   1. Internet Explorer integration Localtion at User Configuration/Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge. Double-click Configure Internet Explorer integration. And select Enabled.
   2. Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List Localtion at User Configuration/Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge. Double-click Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List. And select Enabled.

Something like this:

If you are not sure how to configure the xml file, you can also use this tool: Enterprise Mode Site List Manager (schema v.2).
