Which browser should I use?

As a web-based platform, DRE supports various browsers. We recommend using a recent version of one of the following three browsers:
  1. Google Chrome
  2. Mozilla Firefox
  3. Microsoft Edge
Cookies are needed for the functionality of myDRE (see Cookie Policies). When cookies are blocked, like in Google Chrome Incognito mode, Safari and Firefox Focus, myDRE, like many other services will not work (properly).
Internet Explorer (IE) is no longer actively supported by Microsoft (click here). anDREa has stopped supporting IE for myDRE.
