Grade 5 Web browsers use advanced functions provided by ActiveX controls to provide the most complete user experience. The browser provides complete functionality on all SharePoint websites, including the Management Center website.
Level 6 and level 2 Web browsers provide basic functions. Therefore, users can perform read/write operations on SharePoint websites and perform website management. However, because only one browser supports ActiveX controls and different browsers have different functions, these browsers may provide different user experiences, there may be some differences with the user experience of level 1 browsers.
