How to forcefully run the browser IE 11 in IE 8 mode?

I tried below code in Global.asax file.

C#

public void Application_EndRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Send compatibility header if IE 11 is used
        if (Request.RawUrl.ToLower().Contains(".aspx") && Request.Browser.MajorVersion == 11)
        {
            Response.AddHeader("X-UA-Compatible", "IE=EmulateIE8");

            //Response.Write("TEST");
        }
    }

Also tried below way to set IE 11 Browser

XML

<httpProtocol>
     <customHeaders>
       <clear />
       <add name="X-UA-Compatible" value="IE=EmulateIE8" />
     </customHeaders>
   </httpProtocol>

Fix your code to work with IE 11 and avoid such patches. That should be used only as a temporary solution if there are major problems.
