What determines if a pinned browser in the taskbar brings up a SECOND (duplicate) icon?

No big deal but when I click on the Opera browser icon in my task bar, it
does not create a second icon (which is good), as it just shows a blue bar
to the left of the existing pinned Opera icon - but when I do the same
thing with the similarly pinned Tor Browser - it brings up a SECOND icon in
the task bar.

Why?

If so, based on that article, you're probably using

There is a way to make a shortcut for the original MSEdge,
except, you can't edit it.

It's the same one I've been using for months. It was the MSoft promo.

Regarding the shortcut to Microsoft Edge... see...

The reason I needed that Edge shortcut is that I maintain WinXP style
accordion cascade menus, and therefore, I needed to add the Edge & IE
shortcuts to that classic Windows XP style Windows 10 native menu:
Start menu browser {edge,ie,firefox,tor,opera,iron,etc.}

EDGE
o TARGET = %windir%\explorer.exe shell:Appsfolder\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8 bbwe!MicrosoftEdge
o STARTIN = %windir%
o ICONFROM = %SystemRoot%\System32\SHELL32.dll

IE
o TARGET = "%ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
o STARTIN = %windir%
o ICONFROM = %ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
