I moved to another user profile - how do i move my edge data including collections?
Collections were super useful for me.. would appreciate help.
- Oh, It could be because it's from another profile so it's not compatible, you can however open the file using Word or Notepad, it contains the data but in HTML/CSS format so it might be tricky..
Thank you!
however, i do not have the option to login to the old profile.
i do have a backup of all apps and data.. will this help?

Maybe, I don't know if the Collection file in the user directory is encrypted with the user's credentials or not so you could try copying the same file to the new profile and see what happens 🙂
Thanks!
HotCakeX is it a file or a folder? trying to understand 😞
Of course
here is the Collection file that you need to copy from your older profile to the new profile
I have around 6 collections but looks like they are all saved into one file.
I'm using Canary channel.
I tried opening it with Notepad and it looks like it's not encrypted as I could see the texts that I saved in my collection in plain text format.
Super helpful!
HotCakeX Thank you so much 🙂
i can't find this file... i was hoping it is synced to the cloud 😞
guess i lost all my collections... bummer.
Thank you anyway 🙂
