OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Error forwarding the new session cannot find:Capabilities {browserName: Edge, ms:extensionPaths: [C:\], platfor

Question

I would like to ask a question on EdgeOptions class.

I see that the DesiredCapabilities class has been obsolete or deprecated from selenium in favor of the BrowerOptions (i.e. EdgeOption. ChromeOptions, FirefoxOptions).

Now I've tried to do remote cross browser testing with Edge, chrome and firefox. With the Firefox and chrome the cross testing work so well but neither with edge i'm getting this error message"OneTimeSetUp: OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Error forwarding the new session cannot find : Capabilities {browserName: Edge, ms:extensionPaths: [C:\Program Files (x86)\Micr...], platformName: windows}".

Remote Selenium Hub is running up and node is registered but on checking the grid console(https://localhost:4444/grid/console), I can only seee that no edge browser is displayed. So I tried the following command"java -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar -role webdriver -hub http://10.8.106.66:4444/wd/hub -port 53244 -browser browserName=microsoftedge,maxInstances=1,platform=WINDOWS -browser browserName=chrome,maxInstances=1,platform=WINDOWS -browser browserName=firefox,maxInstances=1,platform=WINDOWS" and can still when do Grid console(https://localhost:4444/grid/console) still can see internet explorer and the same error message"OneTimeSetUp: OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Error forwarding the new session cannot find : Capabilities {browserName: Edge, ms:extensionPaths: [C:\Program Files (x86)\Micr...], platformName: windows}".

The selenium grid version is 3.141.59 Please help. The script class where Edge error is encountered is:
