SharePoint 2013 - "Open with Explorer" feature not working anymore on IE11

Hello,

A few weeks ago, I had to change the Master Pages of my SharePoints so that they are displayed like in IE11 instead of IE10. This is because I had Google maps embedded on those pages.

Since I've made this change, the "Open with Explorer" feature is not working anymore. When I click on it, I don't get any error message, it just doesn't do anything.

Anybody knows how to solve this?

Thank you,

Laura

    I am very agree with Trevor Seward's answer.
    SharePoint 2013 doesn’t support IE11, you have to use IE 10 mode.

    As a workaround, you could download and install Google Maps for SharePoint application that supports display the Google Maps in SharePoint 2013.

    SharePoint 2013 doesn't support IE 11 mode so you will see elements break. You'll need to revert to IE 10 mode.
