Hi Insiders, we have received a lot of feedback about how you would like to close your tabs with the option of easily finding and reopening them later as you move between different workflows. Specifi...

Elliot Kirk, Well, I used Set-aside Tabs a lot in classic Edge, and I never thought that Collections was meant to replace S.A. Tabs. I've tried Collections, and it's nothing like S.A, Tabs. My point is, S.A. Tabs and Collections are meant for different purposes. My inference from what I've seen is that Collections is meant for researching, collecting recipes, and so forth, including sharing with someone. S. A. Tabs is meant to reopen specific tabs (websites) at a later time.
Again, it frustrates me when folks tell me that I don't need Set-aside Tabs because they've given me Collections. They're two different things, for different purposes. I say this with trepidation, because someone might say, "Well, just use that," but Favorites works better than Collections as a replacement for Set-aside Tabs.
Regards,
Dan

Collections need improvements if they are intended to do the job of Set aside tabs.
- a quick way to add all open tabs to an out generated Collection.
Benefits of doing this:
- Collections feature is already here and implemented in Edge, the core, the sidebar, the UI.
- Collections can be renamed/named, that's what users asked in the thread, to be able to give a custom name to the group of tabs they put aside.
- Collections have the ability to show the contents inside the tabs set aside, not just their title.
