Hey there rsatoh44875, it looks like this might be covered by this Chromium fix - 1166362 - ShortcutsMenu isn't created. - chromium

Could you try adding a PWA in Canary (it's been validated there already) and confirm if this is resolved for you?

Thanks!

Dear Alexandra-R,

Thank you for your answer. When I checked with Edge of Canary (90.0.793.0), a shortcut file was created even with OS Build 19042.
In OS Build 19042 or later + Edge ver.88, PWA is registered like UWP, so I thought it was a specification change, but it was a bug in Edge ver.88, right? Is it?

Best Regards,
