I see a similar posts on this topic although I would like to iterate the urgency of this requirement to our automation projects due to IE 11 going away on June 2022: [Edge Chromium cannot test pages in 'Internet Explorer mode](http://forum.katalon.com/t/edge-chromium-cannot-test-pages-in-internet-explorer-mode/47139).

Did we know how to make this work on Katalon? I have tried DesiredCapabilities; InternetExplorerOptions etc to set the following:  
a. ‘ie.edgechromium’,true  
b. ‘ie.edgepath’,‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe’

I see articles that this is working in C# and wondering if there is any reference or way we could make this work on Katalon that uses Java/Groovy: [http://5.9.10.113/65902742/how-to-open-microsoft-edge-in-internet-explorerie-mode-using-python-and-seleni](http://5.9.10.113/65902742/how-to-open-microsoft-edge-in-internet-explorerie-mode-using-python-and-seleni)

#### Operating System

- Windows 10

#### Katalon Studio Enterprise Version

- 8.0.5

I haven’t used this or actually have a need for this right now (would have been useful a year ago) but I saw this entry on the MS site - Java instructions:

> **[Use Internet Explorer Driver to automate IE mode in Microsoft Edge -...](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webdriver-chromium/ie-mode?tabs=java)**
>
> How to test your legacy website or app in IE mode in Microsoft Edge.

@Dan_Bown

Thanks. The link you shared helped me, but you have to use Selenium 4/eclipse/java .

On the other hand, I am getting the below issue - pop-up blocked.

Have you come across such scenario in IE?
