    No.
    The last time I tried, which was before Edge, it broke the game icons that Steam created. Havent tried more recently.

    I think the push by MS for Edge, might have helped.
    Make a backup and try it again. Who knows.

    Like they might be "coding" things away from IE, and towards Edge.

    But there's always the alternative MyIE

    An organisation I volunteer for as IT support has an older security system that provides remote images. The only access is through IE with the security company's proprietary plug-in that only works on IE ... as well as MyIE. But not on any other browser.

    Thanks but I am quite happy with Edge which serves me well except the ugly icon

    When this happens, everybody will proclaim that IE 11 was the best thing that Microsoft ever did and they hate them for removing it. Although we all know the truth is that they never really used IE 11 unless they absolutely had to.
    No, it was B.O.B.

    I always thought IE9 and upwards weren't that bad of browsers. Chromium Edge is awesome though.

    I like IE.

    I will miss its ability to work with me about Favourites instead of regarding them as its own property.
    - I can save a Favourite and it's straight in the file system as a url file so I can use it within IE immediately or I can drag it into another folder for retention [my Digestive biscuits folder contains spreadsheets, pdf files, url files, text files] instead of having to maintain "Bookmarks" as a parallel filing system.
    - TenForums and WindowsQuestions are two of the few websites I can still reliably use IE with anyway and they are the ones I make/alter most Favourites in.
    - When [was it Windows 95?] I first found IE I thought it was a huge step forward to be able to save Favourites as url files instead of the Bookmarks that Netscape Navigator[?] kept to itself. But I also remember thinking that the name Favourites was treating users as children.

    I will not miss my concern about the passwords it saves [for my convenience & with my permission]. I am aware of the utilities that anybody with access can run to grab the lot of them in the blink of an eye.
    - In Edge, they seem to be safe from infiltration without any particular action being taken.
    - In Firefox, I need to use a Primary password [the new name for Master password] to stop infiltration {and that's assuming the password thieving utilities I tested it against are typical}.
