is "--single-argument %1" only a place holder?
and could this be done for Edge canary? not sure what its registry path is in "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT"

I think it is.

Sorry, I'm using Canary without installation. So I don't have much to say about it's paths in Registry.
But you always can modify exe-path in command.

so about that,
"%1" represent the file used as param of the msedge command. So basically it's your "MSEdgHTM" file. If you remove it, open a MSEdgeHTM file will just open msedge.exe without opening the file inside it.
"--single-argument :"

The single-argument switch prevents unexpected parsing of arguments from other software that cannot be trusted to escape double quotes when substituting into a placeholder (e.g., "%1" placeholders populated by the Windows shell).
So its purpose is to be sure that the next argument (%1) will be interpreted correctly as a single argument.
It's probably better to keep it.
