Hello,
Do you know if it's possible to install Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 11 (Pro for my case)
without going through the IE compatibility mode on Edge?
I downloaded and tried to install IE11 for Windows 7 from the Microsoft website, and at the end of the installation, a message indicates that I need to restart the computer to finalize the installation, but upon restart, there's still no IE...
Thank you in advance for your responses :)

Hello,
Pistouri,
I've tried all the manipulations in Microsoft Edge's IE mode, but it doesn't work for my software; I'm still getting an error message from it on launch.
Brucine,
I uninstalled Edge using "iObit Uninstaller." There is still no way to launch Internet Explorer: by running "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe," I get the following message: "Cannot launch Microsoft Edge. Please check that you have Microsoft Edge installed and try again."
I eventually installed Windows 10, and the problem is circumvented.
Thank you and have a good evening.-
I confirm. The IE11 compatibility mode provided by Edge is completely buggy. It doesn't work and crashes left and right with Windows 11.
In my case, it's useful for using switches and video servers that have built-in interfaces using ActiveX. So there's no solution possible with potential updates from the manufacturers. The only option is to revert to Windows 10, and I will eventually opt for an OS under Android.
Thank you nonetheless for your well-made tutorials but unfortunately ineffective.
