@ranjithckm7 Sounds like normal behavior (it should then even come back again after explorer restart) if you imported a taskbar-layout with PowerShell Import-StartLayout command into your image. In the xml you imported you should have an entry like this:
<taskbar:UWA AppUserModelID="Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe!MicrosoftEdge" />
and need to replace it with this:
<taskbar:DesktopApp DesktopApplicationLinkPath="%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Edge.lnk" />
reimport the Start-Layout and you should be fine for new user profiles on this machine.
For existing profiles you need to edit the LayoutModification.xml under %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Shell for each and replace the exactly same lines. as mentioned above. My sample PowerShell-Code for that ($profile is the path to C:\Users\username in the current round of the loop)
[xml]$LayoutMod = Get-Content -Path "$profile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\LayoutModification.xml"
$newItem = $LayoutMod.CreateElement("taskbar:DesktopApp")
$newItem.SetAttribute("DesktopApplicationLinkPath", "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Edge.lnk")
$oldItem = $LayoutMod.LayoutModificationTemplate.CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection.TaskbarLayout.TaskbarPinList.UWA | ? AppUserModelID -Like '*edge*'
$LayoutMod.LayoutModificationTemplate.CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection.TaskbarLayout.TaskbarPinList.ReplaceChild($newItem, $oldItem)
$LayoutMod.Save("$profile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\LayoutModification.xml")
As far as I have seen, this doesn't happen to the start menu because the whole behavior of Import-StartLayout in start menu is another one and users are able to change their tiles (changes overlast explorer-restarts), so the default Icon-changes the edge setup brings with it, are enough for start menu if you used Import-Startlayout.
