Internet Explorer Mode Issue – Microsoft Edge Reinstallation Required

Question

Dear Team,

We are facing an issue while opening a webpage in Internet Explorer mode. The system is displaying an error stating that Microsoft Edge needs to be reinstalled with administrator privileges to enable IE mode functionality.

Kindly assist in reinstalling Microsoft Edge with admin rights or provide the necessary support to resolve this issue at the earliest.

Answer 1

Hello,

Please right‑click the Edge icon on your desktop and choose Run as administrator. Then check if you can access normally.

In addition, a Japanese user previously encountered a similar issue caused by antivirus software. You can also look at the content in this link: https://learn.microsoft.com/ja-jp/answers/questions/5775403/intenet-explorer-microsoft-edge

Please note that the link is in Japanese. You can use Edge’s translation feature to read it in English.

Thank you.
