MS Windows 10 Edge Live tiles system cache

I've changed paths (polling uri's) to XML with data but Windows still requests the old one xml url.

I was updating xml url in the following steps:

  1. Turn live tiles off
  2. Unpin tile
  3. MS Edge browser cache and history clearing
  4. Delete all content within C:/Users/user_name/AppData/Local/Packages/Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_randomized_hash/LocalState/PinnedTiles
  5. Delete file iconcache.db inside C:/Users/user_name/AppData/Local
  6. Disk Cleanup

So I start MS Edge again and pin tiles to start menu. Then I see that Windows still requests the old xml path via server logs.

How to update it? There must be some system cache I suppose ...

I've spent a lot of time and would appreciate any advice!
