You’ll never make them any other way. I bought an egg rack or you can just put them in the steamer basket. Add 1 cup water to the IP and cook on regular pressure for 5 minutes. I let mine stay in there a while and then put the eggs in a bowl of ice water for about 10 minutes. Shells slip right off no matter how “young” the eggs are.
