Microsoft has begun testing for its Internet Explorer Edge mode, where development modes of Microsoft Edge can test the new mode. This would allow users to run old websites that are not supported by more powerful browsers.
Internet Explorer for Edge would allow users to access legacy sites without having to switch browsers. Website builders can also use the feature to create a website that will be able to auto change to a legacy mode. However, the developer builds of the browser will have limitations, due to the fact that bugs are continuously being found and fixed.
Other features of the Microsoft Edge release will include improved work features, an example being "enterprise-grade" PDF files. Other features will be released to the browser which includes a safe data syncing.
