    ericgl did you install fresh or upgrade to KB5065789? After update the icon is available only when launching edit as administrator. As user there's no icon:

    Well, I am an administartor on my computer. Not sure what you'll see as a regular user.
    I actually used the 25H2 ISO to upgrade since Windows Update failed to update my system to 25H2 26200.6584.
    I may have tried afterwards updating to preview build 26200.6725.

    The file "edit.exe" is located in a rather strange place: C:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_microsoft-edit_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.26100.6725_none_d3866c5d8baddbf8\edit.exe
    There is no additional hard-linked file.
