Quick question, tried to find some documentation about it, but could not find anything.
Am I able to run Microsoft Edge in IE mode with SeleniumBase? I've spent a couple of days trying with regular Selenium but just can't figure it out, so I found SeleniumBase and it seems to make fewer headaches. :) So, my only requirement at the moment is to be able to run MS Edge in IE Mode, is that feasible?
Thanks.

Hi @alekks, you can run SeleniumBase with Edge using --browser=edge and SeleniumBase with IE using --browser=ie, but Edge in IE-Mode is not currently supported, so consider using the two browsers separately when using SeleniumBase.

Thanks for your reply.
Windows seem to have started pushing for switching from IE to Edge now, after last windows update I now get a wizard to choose whether to use recommended settings or not when launching IE. Can't find a way to target this dialog with SeleniumBase, and with legacy systems, Edge in IE mode is still very much a thing and will be for several years to come.
So is running Edge in IE mode planning to be supported?
Thanks again.

Hi @alekks, The info on https://pureinfotech.com/enable-ie-mode-microsoft-edge-chromium/ has the steps you're looking for. With SeleniumBase, you can pass a custom chromium/edge arg using --chromium-arg="--ARG" on the command line once you know what args you need to pass to enable what you want. That can be a comma-separated list if necessary.
