Version 18865 contains hidden Edge-as-a-Chrome within the Windows Sandbox. If you haven’t found it before, Windows Sandbox will enable you to run programs in a walled garden environment, making sure your shenanigans won’t affect the rest of your system.

Edge version 75.0.111.0 is hidden in that sandbox and almost passive-aggressive message that it’s ready-not-ready for primetime. Although it is possible to install Edge/Chromium alongside Edge/Edge, it seems that Microsoft was keen not to muddy the waters too much.
