Thanks

      I think I did try ExecutionAlias... It is for Windows 10 for now and we are attempting as a standalone package.

        SajidRavat Yes, Execution alias needs only Win 10 1703. It is Shared Package Container that needs Win 11. The idea here is that Edge needs the shated container since it is also running in a container. This might not also work, but is the best idea that I have.
