Your pings show that Wondershare has been redirected to 127.0.0.1, which is the address of your own computer. This is a technique used to prevent the computer from connecting to specific sites. The redirection is probably in your Hosts file. Have you knowingly edited this file yourself?

You can check whether this is what happened: on the Start menu, find Notepad, right-click on it and select More > Run as administrator. Give permission, then in Notepad navigate to and open this file:

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Look for entries like 

127.0.0.1    www.wondershare.com

If you find any, disable them simply by typing a hash (#) at the start of the line, save and close the file. Then try opening Wondershare in Edge again.

If your Hosts file had been edited, do you know who or what did it if you didn't?
