I don't really appreciate random unidentified things like this that just turn up, especially on a work laptop.

Try this:

Edge > Settings > Search for "Briefcase" > Customize appearance > Show briefcase icon on work profiles | Are you satisfied with seeing the briefcase icon on work profiles?

Hello Jamie,

I am Jaspreet Singh.

The icon change is for "edge for business" mode of the brower which was announced to be coming in an update later a couple of months back

A few more functionalities have been added in this month : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/mi...
