    It seems not an ordinary extension.

    If you looked into manifest.json under that folder, you could see its name and description.
    >"name": "Update CWS CTA Button",
    >"description": "Change CTA on CWS from 'Add to Chrome' to 'Get' and 'Remove from Chrome' to 'Remove'",
    Try visit Chrome Web Store thru the link on edge://extensions page and move to any extension's page. 'Add to Chrome' button is displayed as 'Get'.
    Since this feature(msEnableCWSButtonUpdate) is in Experiments/Field Trials, it works when msEnableCWSButtonUpdate is enabled. Whether it is enabled or disabled depends on configuration service(online).

        CWS => Chrome Web Store
        CTA => Call to Action

        So, as noted by atlanto, this is the thing that changes Chrome's Extension Web Store to tell you you can install the extension into Edge.
