# How do I turn on IE compatibility in Edge?
1. **Open Microsoft Edge**: Start by launching the 
Edge browser on your computer.
2. **Access the Menu**: In the top-right corner of the Edge window, you'll see three horizontal dots (...). Click on these dots to open the browser's main menu.
3. **Navigate to Settings**: From the drop-down menu, select 
Settings. This is where you can adjust various aspects of the Edge browser to your liking.
4. **Go to Default Browser Settings**: Within the Settings, locate and click on 'Default browser'. This section allows you to manage how Edge handles different web pages and compatibility settings.
5. **Enable IE Mode**: Look for the option labelled 'Internet Explorer compatibility'. Here, you will find a setting that allows you to 'Allow sites to be reloaded in Internet Explorer mode'. Turn this option on to enable IE compatibility mode.\
6. **Restart Edge**: After changing this setting, Edge may prompt you to restart the browser for the changes to take effect. Close and reopen Edge to complete the process.
7. **Using IE Mode**: Once IE mode is enabled, you can reload any website in Internet Explorer mode by clicking on the three dots in the browser's top-right corner and selecting 'Reload in Internet Explorer mode' from the menu. 
\
Toggle "Open this page in Internet Explorer mode next time" to remember this preference.\
8. **Enjoy the Compatibility**: With IE mode enabled, Edge can now access websites that were designed for older web standards, ensuring better compatibility with legacy websites.
