I don't use the Edge browser so I can't say what you can or can't do to fix this.
However, if the browser itself is still active, you should be able to send "Keys" to the current page and these will be picked up by the modal window (your dialog box .... assuming it's a modal type dialog).
You can probably use hotkeys (if the dialog uses them .... like "CTRL+Y" for yes or something) or ESC or ENTER will usually work here as well.
But I suspect you'd want to know what a dialog was for and what it said before randomly/blindly keying past it?
No?

Hi Samantha_chin,
TestComplete doesn’t recognize Edge as a browser on your computer for some reason. Take a look at the children of the Sys object in the tree you posted – you have the Process object instead of Browser (as in my image).
So, first of all, we need to make TestComplete recognize the browser correctly. Please make sure that the Tools | Options | Engines | General | Enable support for Windows Store application testing option is enabled. Please read this article for more information:https://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/77787/
Also, to test Edge, TestComplete must be installed into a subfolder of the <Program Files> folder (or <Program Files (x86)> on 64-bit operating systems). If the product isn’t installed in that folder, you would need to reinstall TestComplete.
Let us know your results.
