Surprisingly enough, none of the answers in this question seem to answer the question properly. It seems as though everyone is saying it's located in C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe, but clicking on the MicrosoftEdge.exe in that folder does not open the program.

I am trying to run Microsoft Edge in Sandboxie. However, I'm finding it quite challenging because it seems as though I can only do that with a direct link to the .exe file. Is there any location for the .exe which I can press and run, so that I can open it with Sandboxie? I don't want to change my default browser.

Edge already runs in a sandbox provided by Windows with the help of the User Account Control. There is no need sandbox Edge. Also the Store apps can't be started directly by clicking on the exe.

Yes, Microsoft Edge does not launch like a normal Win32 application. However, you can download a small application that will launch Edge from a normal EXE file.

There are several "Edge Launch" application available... I wrote one. Take a look at this article to see if this is something that you'd like to use:
