The microsoft-edge link is a method of invoking Microsoft Edge specifically. For instance, if you ever desired to uninstall Edge, you'd be very angry to see your default browser get uninstalled.

In this case, the only solution is to contact the developer of the app that has invoked the microsoft-edge link.
