Hello Miroslav,
That error is caused by a failure to install/locate Edge. The Cerberus desktop user interface uses a Chrome platform to improve UI speed and experience. Cerberus has moved to this platform to display desktop user interface pages instead of relying on Internet Explorer. This is to modernize the Cerberus user interface and also improve performance.
While it is NOT required as the Cerberus user interface will continue to use Internet Explorer if you don't install WebView2, we recommend WebView2 as it significantly improves UI performance and also many server administrators are moving to uninstall IE because it is obsolete.
The installer will attempt to download and install this platform if it detects it is not installed, this is likely why you're facing this error. To reduce the possibility of an issue when updating, it is possible to do a manual install of WebView2 BEFORE updating Cerberus. That way Cerberus won't try to install it when you update.
Here is the Microsoft page describing WebView2 which also has install links.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/
It is recommended that you use the 'x64' link in the 'Evergreen Standalone Installer'. Optionally you can download the 'Evergreen Bootstrapper' which is a tiny installer that downloads the Evergreen Runtime matching device architecture and installs it locally.0
