Random PWA Identity Proxy Host background crashes
Hey there OP! Feel free to respond on your other thread, but pasting this here in case anyone not caught in that one finds this and is seeing these crashes.
What version of Windows are you on, and are you interacting with Edge before you see these errors or are they somewhat 'random'? Have you installed any apps from the Microsoft Store, or have you installed any websites as PWAs prior to seeing this?

- Im not geting this error anymore in version 97.0.1072.55,windows fuly updated.
I found your reply in the Reddit thread, will post my answer here as well:
1. I'm on Windows 10 21H1 (19043.1348), another user https://www.tenforums.com/browsers-email/187175-recurrent-crashing-specific-edge-service-post2323477.html#post2323477 is having the same issue. There are also ppl on Windows 11 having the same issue shown https://www.elevenforum.com/t/pwa-identity-proxy-host-errors-in-reliability-history.2797/ . He had to disable Web Apps to solve this (I don't have this option to disable at all in the Edge "flags" link)
2. I think this seem to happen randomly when closing Edge but I'm not sure. Mind you it's very random and doesn't always occur.
3. As for the Store apps, I have the standard Microsoft Store apps along with nVidia Control Panel, Realtek Audio and Piano10 app.
4. I have not installed any PWA's.
- Thanks for reporting this, JohnnyGui. I think this is a crash we are familiar with and believe we have fixed in the version 96 which should be available very soon.
If these continue after updating to 96, please let me know. Due to the somewhat random behavior, we cannot be 100% sure we fixed it completely.
