Hi,
We're using Selenium to automate a web application in IE compatibility mode of Edge browsers, as the web app supports IE only as well as the end of support of IE.
The problem is when a window is popped up, and we call the driver.getWindowHandles, we can not the the handle of the new window.
The environment is as the following:
- Windows 10 19043.1288 + Edge 94.0.992.50 + IE 11 19043.1288
- Selenium Server 3.141.59
- IEDriverServer_Win32_3.150.0
Here's a selenium issue reporting this for your reference.
Kindly please advise, thanks a lot!

Anonymous2021-10-25T06:00:26.497+00:00 This is a known issue and hasn't been solved yet. I think we can do nothing but only wait for the fix from official.
I found that you also posted here. I think you can continue to follow up the post to get informed.
Thanks for your understanding.Regards,
