Android Emulator - How to Run Chrome App After Upgrade

I am trying to upgrade the Chrome app on the Pixel 4 emulator but am unable to run it after upgrade.

To upgrade the version of Chrome to the latest, I run:

adb -s install -r com.android.chrome_89.0.4389.105-438910521_minAPI24\(x86\)\(nodpi\)_apkmirror.com.apk

It gives me this:

Performing Streamed Install

Success

However, on the emulator it removed the Chrome app icons so how can I launch the chrome app after upgrade? It DOES appear in Settings > Apps and the version is upgraded to the version from the apk file I gave.

If I try running it via the following adb command:

adb shell am start -n com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main

I get:

Starting: Intent { cmp=com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main } Error type 3 Error: Activity class {com.android.chrome/com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main} does not exist.

Is there a way to get the Chrome App Icons to show after upgrade or is there another adb command I can use?

We determined that using this apk instead works: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/chrome/chrome-89-0-4389-105-release/google-chrome-fast-secure-89-0-4389-105-16-android-apk-download/download/?forcebaseapk
