Enterprise Mode Site List (IE mode) is converting all URLS to lowercase.

AFMW 15

I require the following website:

https://bawe.accountis.net/MyCompanyName/login

to open in IE11 mode with allow redirect. I create the following enterprise mode site list

<site-list version="2">
  <created-by>
    <tool>EMIESiteListManager</tool>
    <version>10.0.14357.1004</version>
    <date-created>02/02/2023 21:28:08</date-created>
  <site url="bawe.accountis.net/MyCompanyName/login">
    <compat-mode>Default</compat-mode>
    <open-in allow-redirect="true">IE11</open-in>
  </site>
</site-list>

However, when I view edge://compat/enterprise I see that the URL being passed is:

*://bawe.accountis.net/mycompanyname/login

This is not suitable as the payment processing website is case sensitive for the company name portion of the URL. How can I enable case sensitivity with this?

It should be noted that manually added URLS to edge->settings->default browser->add retain the case sensitivity and do work, however these only last for 30 days hence me needing the enterprise list.

I am aware of the "date change manual entry" registry bodge to circumvent the 30 days, but I require this on multiple PCS and we also sync edge profiles so this will not work.

Hi @AFMW ,

Based on my understanding it is by design behavior that the browser convert the URL to lowercase. I did not see any setting to change this behavior.

I tested the scenario with the Edge IE mode by adding the sites to the Enterprise site list manually or by configuring the Site list group policy. In both scenario, I found that it converts the URL to lowercase.

Could you please share your testing screenshot where we could see that Edge IE mode retain the URL uppercase characters when you add URL to IE mode manually? Also share the which version of the MS Edge browser you are using?

Best Regards,

Deepak
