ABP not working when IE run as an app

Post by rich.mab000 »

Hi there!

Am on Windows 8.1 using IE 11 on my new Lenovo Flex 2. Installed ABP and is working as normal when I am running IE in 'desktop' mode.
But when I flip the laptop over and switch to running IE as an app, no ABP?!

Any advice appreciated. Cheers!

OIC, thanks for the info.
I guess the same is true for Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 (yeah I upgraded, what an idiot :roll: ) , seems ABP are working on it so hopefully fixed soon.

Cheers and thanks again!
