Launch IE11 in IE9 Browser Mode from Shortcut

Question

We have an asp.net application that uses Devexpress. Unfortunately, the Devexpress version does not support IE 11, and we need to update it.

However, we are close to replacing the application with a new rewritten application that does not use Devexpress. Therefore, the modernization of devexpress will be a huge waste for us.

Is there a way that we can have a shortcut for our desktop application, and so that this shortcut displays IE11 to run in IE9 browser mode?

I know that maybe I'm asking something like stupid, but I don’t need to work like that. We just need a way to get IE11 to run in IE9 browser mode whenever it launches our application. It should be far away ... even if we need to make some changes to the registry ... any parameters would be useful at this point.

Thanks Nick

Maybe this is a solution / workaround to your problem.

1. Add the following line of code to the main page of your application.

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9">

IE 9. , F12
