  • When you're browsing as a guest, you're getting Edge/Chromium internal new tab page, which has the new icon.
    When you're browsing under a regular user (your profile), MSN/Bing web new tab page (the one with bookmarks, news, etc.) loads instead. It still has the old icon.

  • This is fixed now in Edge Version 89.0.773.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

    the new icon appears everywhere: (new tab page, inPrivate mode, Guest mode, another profile, application guard window)

  • Will most likely be updated by the time Edge team are done upgrading the icons, if not then you can remind them with a piece of feedback
