Our users have pinned shortcuts to Edge apps on their taskbars.
Lately, every few days users will get an error when clicking the Edge app shortcuts on the Taskbar:
Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\89.0.774.76\identity_helper.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
When you look in the Edge\Application folder, there's usually a folder with a different version number in there.
A reboot or logoff/logon usually clears the issue up, but users are (understandably) getting annoyed.
Any idea what's causing this and how to resolve it?

It's some kind of joke! - to hardwire as it were, the shortcut to a directory that has the version number as part of it's name. And then to update the version automatically -breaking this shortcut!
My fix was to copy the directory within the parent directory and rename it to the directory it was expecting - fixed.
