Hi Everyone, I am trying to open a company website through the Web Browser component in Vision. The issue I am having is that the website can only be opened in Internet Explorer or in Microsoft Edge with the "Internet Explorer Mode" on.

Does somebody know if there is a similar mode or any workaround?

Thanks in advanced!

Internet Explorer mode option in Edge:

There most likely isn't a mode. The built-in web browser component is based on Chromium, not Edge (Edge is also based on Chromium, but MS has put their own stuff on top of it, like Internet Explorer mode)
