About this tag
The collections retirement tag covers Microsoft Edge's deprecation of the Collections feature in preview builds. Users are presented with migration options that either move pages to Favorites, losing images and notes, or export data to CSV, which preserves content but destroys the visual workspace. The tag includes threads on how to export, back up, and preserve thumbnails and inline notes before migration. Topics span from casual users to research teams and managed IT environments, all facing the abrupt retirement and incomplete migration paths. The content focuses on practical steps for data preservation and the limitations of Microsoft's provided options.
