    Question Power Query - Browser out of date

    I am trying to grab website data using a Power Query by going to Data>From Web.

    The URL I target returns a "Browser out of date" message, and I cannot drill down to the data I want to grab.

    In Options>Advanced>General>Web Options I can select "Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 6 or later", but no choice is available for another browser.

    I think Excel internally uses an old version IE, and the website I target is then stopping me from grabbing the data, and redirects me to a warning my browser is out of date instead.

    How to solve this with Power Query?

    Sorry, this board does not let me post an URL. If you go to Google Patents, and enter US 6637447, that is the URL I target.

    I am running Chrome (a Google Browser) and I get the following message. This is not an Excel issue. This is a Google issue. I suggest you contact Google to open a ticket on Compatibility.
