How to set new value to existing query string Blazor

I'm attempting to change a query string paramater without reloading the page. I have a DateTime Date value that I'm attempting to turn into a string and put into the url. Say, for the sake of this question that it is:

DateTime? Date = new DateTime(2020, 9, 4);

So, my url could begin looking like:

https://localhost:44346/Events?d=2020-10-18

and after I do whatever magic must be done, it ends up like:

https://localhost:44346/Events?d=2020-10-04

I have attempted using NavigationManager and QueryHelpers like the following, but I've had no luck:

QueryHelpers.AddQueryString(navManager.Uri, "d", Date?.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"));

From .NET 6.0 onwards, there's a built-in method for this (NavigationManagerExtensions.GetUriWithQueryParameter()):

var newUrl = navManager.GetUriWithQueryParameter("d", Date?.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"));

Please check out this demo

    @page "/counter"
    @using Microsoft.AspNetCore.WebUtilities
    @using System.Web 
    @inject NavigationManager navManager
    
    <button class="btn btn-primary" @onclick="ChangeUrl">Change url</button>
    <br />
    demonstrate lack of page reload
    <br />
    <button class="btn btn-primary" @onclick="AddItem">Add item</button>
    @foreach (var item in list)
    {
        @item
    }
    
    @code {
    
        private List<string> list = new List<string>()
        {
            "Test string"
        };
    
        private void AddItem()
        {
            var uri = navManager.ToAbsoluteUri(navManager.Uri);
    
            if (QueryHelpers.ParseQuery(uri.Query).TryGetValue("d", out var param))
            {
                list.Add(param.First());
            }
            else
            {
                list.Add("d is empty");
            }
        }
    
        DateTime dateCounter = DateTime.Today;
        private void ChangeUrl()
        {
            dateCounter = dateCounter.AddDays(1);
    
            string url = RemoveQueryStringByKey(navManager.Uri, "d");
            var query = new Dictionary<string, string> { { "d", dateCounter.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy") } };
    
            navManager.NavigateTo(QueryHelpers.AddQueryString(url, query));
        }
    
        public static string RemoveQueryStringByKey(string url, string key)
        {
            var uri = new Uri(url);
    
            // this gets all the query string key value pairs as a collection
            var newQueryString = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uri.Query);
    
            // this removes the key if exists
            newQueryString.Remove(key);
    
            // this gets the page path from root without QueryString
            string pagePathWithoutQueryString = uri.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Path);
    
            return newQueryString.Count > 0
                ? String.Format("{0}?{1}", pagePathWithoutQueryString, newQueryString)
                : pagePathWithoutQueryString;
        }
    }
