Edge Chromium Icon in taskbar

We install the Edge Chromium during the OSD Tasksequence via SCCM.

After log in, we have a Edge Icon in the Taskbar.

In our startmenu.xml layout file there is no entry for this.

The shortcut is placed in %appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar.

How we can prevent the creation of the taskbar icon?

We use the stable channel 80.0.361.62.

With this settings in the master_preferences file, there is no more icon in the taskbar.

"create_all_shortcuts":false,
"do_not_create_desktop_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_quick_launch_shortcut":true,
"do_not_create_taskbar_shortcut":true

  Thanks a lot! It works!
  I use
  "do_not_create_any_shortcuts":true,
  But after open Edge at the first time the icon get pinned with the parameter --profile-directory=DEFAULT
