Have you already tried rebooting? I'm thinking this is an edge case for some users because MSEdgeRedirect is setup to not allow duplicate instances but isn't closing out fast enough after the install is done

Yep, tried rebooting. Still not working. Anything I can do to provide some logs?

Nah, Winget should have errored out if the install failed. Check %localappdata%\MSEdgeRedirect or C:\Program FIles\MSEdgeRedirect\ for MSEdgeRedirect.exe

If you have neither, let me know

Updated to the latest version. Issue resolved. Unsure why it did not work before.
