We are using a xml to set the startmenu and the pinned taskbar icon.
Our taskbar section in the XML looks like:
<CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection PinListPlacement="Replace">
<defaultlayout:TaskbarLayout>
<taskbar:TaskbarPinList>
<taskbar:DesktopApp DesktopApplicationLinkPath="%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System Tools\File Explorer.lnk" />
<taskbar:DesktopApp DesktopApplicationID="MSEdge" />
</taskbar:TaskbarPinList>
</defaultlayout:TaskbarLayout>
</CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection>
All looks fine and the Edge is pinned in the Taskbar.
At the first start there are two icons in the taskbar a few seconds.
Then log out and log in now there are two Edge icons in the taskbar .
So I am checking the properties of them and see the target is different.
First icon: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --profile-directory=Default
Second icon: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe"
If I unpin the first icon and open edge with the second one the same happens as i mention above.
Only one icon stays, but if I log out and log in the second one (from the xml) get pinned.
If I unpin the second icon and open Edge the same happens as mentioned before.
So everytime the icon on the taskbar get changed to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --profile-directory=Default
Additional information: If I do not pin Edge with the xml on the taskbar and open them out of the startmenu NO icon get pinned automatically.
So this happens ONLY when open the taskbar pinned Edge!
That behavior is super annoying and make no sense!
Microsoft please fix this or let us know how we could add Edge to the xml!
Thanks!
