******* IMPORTANT BROWSER INFORMATION *******
From 15th June 2022 support for Internet Explorer 11 will cease, as such there will be a requirement for Windows 10 users to move to using Microsoft Edge for web browsing. For Primary HPV ICE to operate within Edge it is necessary to make a configuration change to your setup.
The current version of ICE used for Primary HPV requesting allows user access via Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and via Microsoft Edge running in compatibility mode. Your IT provider/department will need to configure group policy to allow the following URL to run in Internet Explorer mode within Edge by default.

*** Should your IT provider/Trust set Edge as the default web browser you will no longer be able to access HPV ICE unless the URL is configured to run in IE mode of Edge ***
