Caution

Update: The retired, out-of-support Internet Explorer 11 desktop application has been permanently disabled through a Microsoft Edge update on certain versions of Windows 10. For more information, see Internet Explorer 11 desktop app retirement FAQ.

Applies to:

  • Windows 10
  • Windows 8.1
  • Windows 7
  • Windows Server 2012 R2
  • Windows Server 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1)

Remove websites that were added to a local compatibility view list by mistake or because they no longer have compatibility problems.

To remove sites from a local compatibility view list

  1. Open Internet Explorer 11, click Tools, and then click Compatibility View Settings.

  2. Pick the site to remove, and then click Remove.

    Sites can only be removed one at a time. If one is removed by mistake, it can be added back using this same box and the Add section.
