Using MSI command to install Edge v88 produces 2 entries in Control Panel
I am trying to install Microsoft Edge using command line.
If I just double click the Enterprise MSI and have it go through, then the control panel shows 1 entry of Microsoft Edge. I am able to uninstall it without issues.
If I try to run this command:
msiexec /i MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi DONOTCREATEDESKTOPSHORTCUT=True DONOTCREATETASKBARSHORTCUT=TRUE /qn
or this:
msiexec /i MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi DONOTCREATEDESKTOPSHORTCUT=True /qn
I get 2 entries in Control Panel:
If I try to uninstall the "2nd" entry I get this error:
In order for me to uninstall it, I first have to repair it, then I can uninstall it.
I am an admin on this test machine.
If I run this command msiexec /i MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi /qn, then only 1 entry but i have a desktop icon.
I am not sure why this is happening

No issues here on Windows 7
you could use start /wait instead msiexec /i to make sure the installation is complete before returning
