Recognize msedge.exe as a Web Browser

Fiddler's "Web Browsers" filter does not include msedge.exe as a web browser. This is the executable name of the new Chromium-based version of Edge that Microsoft is now working on.

This should be a one-line fix and very much appreciated by the many thousands of Fiddler+Edge users.

Any chance of this making it out soon? It has been an annoyance to me for awhile now.

Hey, Simeon-- I should note that I think the correct fix here is to create a new String preference which is a comma-delimited list of web browser process names such that the user can amend the list over time without shipping a new Fiddler.

Also, beyond msedge.exe, the default list should also include brave.exe.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for helping! Indeed, this one is one-line fix. I have placed it in the backlog and I hope that it would be released soon.

The fix is to IsBrowserProcessName(string sProcessName) in Utilities.cs
