Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Word Version 1.0?!
- Nov 28, 2019They shouldn't be automatically installed, it never happened to me.
I have been using Edge insider since its launch, never seen any PWA app install automatically.
I use personal and work account (Office business + E5), tested it on VMs with AAD configuration and Office 365 licenses, still no PWA was created automatically.
It could be a side effect of that "stable" version, which is obviously not ready because Microsoft will officially release it on January 15 2020, 1.5 months from now, so things still aren't quite ready yet.
We're seeing this on a number of systems now with both Dev and Stable installs!

Is there any official response on what's going on with this? It's super confusing to users to suddenly have two copies of these Apps when full Office Desktop is installed!

Adding Deleted as well. Ed Sparks , can you figure out which of your Edge installs those apps are for? That'll be a good place to start narrowing things down. It would also be good to know, once you figure out which Edge they're for, whether or not they show up in the ... > Apps list in that Edge install.

I'm not sure I'm understanding "which of your Edge installs" you mean?
Various computers running both the current Stable and Dev builds of Edge.Yes, they show up in the Settings Apps list on those computers as well.
Thanks!

Ed Sparks sorry, I meant channels. Are they in Dev or Stable, or both?

Ed Sparks Strange, I opened this issue in november 2019. The issue didn't re-occur... until today - strange - and this on a "stable" release, not a "preview" version:
