A few days back I observed having two identical versions of the Microsoft Edge Webview2 runtime installed. I haven’t experienced anything unusual, MSE functions properly and all other components are working well; it’s just that I didn’t have two copies before. Someone could share their experience if possible.

It's possible you have two versions of Edge installed.
Update to the new Microsoft Edge - Microsoft Support
support.microsoft.com
It might be included with Office
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deploy...w2-install
You're not alone

This could be due to a Windows update. It seems it also affected AutoCAD
