A solution that I found to be able to execute IE11 (and that Microsoft Edge is not opened) was to add these 2 registration keys. It does not affect the use of EDGE, which allows the Explorer Internet icon to run, open IE and not Microsoft Edge. The keys are as follows:

reg add "hkcu \ software \ Microsoft \ Internet Explorer \ Main \ featurecontrol \ feature_bypass_sbe_fdd5e421" /v "iexplore.exe" /t reg_dword /d 1 /f

reg add "hkcu \ software \ Microsoft \ Internet Explorer \ Main \ featurecontrol \ feature_bypass_sbe_08a97d41b2f8" /v "iexplore.exe" /t reg_dword /d 1 /f
