'Work - Edge' Desktop Shortcut Reappears after deleting and reopening Edge Browser
End user removes the spam Desktop shortcut labeled 'Work - Edge': Once they reopen the Edge browser, the app shortcut reappears.
Hi Everyone - The fix for this was released to Microsoft Edge Beta Version 117.0.2045.12. If you have access to the Beta Channel, please test and let us know if the issue has been resolved.
The fix should also be included in the next Stable release, which should be later this week if there are no delays. Thanks!

I found a workaround. Turn off the briefcase option in Edge.
Open SETTINGS > APPEARANCE and turn off "Show Briefcase Icon on work profiles." Then restart Edge.
You'll need to delete the duplicate icons, but new ones will not be created.

Wish there was a way to control that as an Admin for our end users. Huge fail on MS's part.
