odd MSEDGE.EXE files/trash folder

[sprocket]

Hello anyone that can help,

I recently looked in my trash folder on windows 11 and noticed a bunch
of prefetch files (well, about 20)

MSEDGE.EXE-37D25F9A

or

Op-MSEDGE.EXE-37D25F9A-00000001

random numbers, and I realize this has something to do with the Edge
browser, but I never saw this type of thing, maybe an update? idk

Thank you for help in advance

i have 100's of those types of files, eg;

BRAVEUPDATE.EXE-F84####A.pf

going back to 2015 [win 7]

it seems like a thing that's been around for some time

oddly enough, some are dated year 2080 ...
