Where can I find my reading list?
- Hi,
1. collections are not available in Beta/Stable channel (version 79). it's only available in Dev and Canary channels (version 81)
2. Reading list, Set Aside tabs and Tab previews features are not available in the new Edge insider browser, they might be implemented some time later.
This is the list of features:

3. your reading lists, tabs set aside from the old Edge, if they very successfully imported, would be located in here: edge://favorites/
if they weren't successfully imported, you can try uninstalling your Edge insider channels
after that download the Beta again and it should import your reading lists and set tabs aside from the old Edge automatically.

Now that Edge is finally out, I installed it and my reading list is not showing. I did try the beta version the other day and it was showing and everything was imported correctly.
What's wrong with this release version? It's worst than the beta version.
Thank you
Thanks Dennis5mile, mine were apparently all saved there. My take on the new Edge is replication of Chrome, which is great except cannot import Edge password saves to my Chromebook.
- Thanks shot the shot, they are made automatically, because you had set tabs aside in Edge classic but forgot to review and close them, so the new Edge just move them over and added them as normal favorites, because tabs set aside feature is not implemented yet in the new Edge.
It's the Groups from ''Tabs set aside'' when clicking on Other favourites in the Favourites bar.
Hi, What Microsoft did was to save folks reading list, set aside tabs etc... from the old Edge in a folder you can access to get at everything had in the old Edge, because those features are not yet in the current New Edge and rather than everyone loosing them, MS saved them for you.... They were not trying to make it more difficult for you or anyone....
And for the Group Tabs, you can do what HotCakeX said....
Hope this helps you understand better what MS was trying to do.
Dennis5milep.s. Please know that I do not work for MS and can not speak for them, this is just my take on what they were trying to do.... my Personal Opinion....
- Can you post a screenshot of the grouped tabs? if you're referring to the same tab grouping that I think you are then you can click on the group color dot and select ungroup.
Sorry to bump in. When I have Show favourites bar enabled, the Other favourites folder is shown. Clicking on that, when I scroll to "Reading list saves", my former set aside for later reads, as well as web notes, are all still there. Very clunky tho trying to do it from the three dots > favourites etc (which scrolls unendingly).
Why do they keep screwing with stuff?
Why do I now have grouped tabs?
- Yep, that is the one showing on my favorites bar..... can't drag it or right click it remove it, nothing... Same one I posted about before....
Dennis5mile - Yeah i know, there is an other favorites folder in here edge://favorites/
that can't be removed. i sent feedback and they said they are working on it Hi HotCakeX , remember that folder I had on my favorites bar called "Other favorites" that I could figure out where it came from...... Well I know now.. it is from the old edge classic that just got replaced on the 15th and is all my Favorites from it... Which has my reading list and set aside tabs..
Strange though that it would show up in a new install of Canary... notice "yellow folders"

- Manual import is good too, do you still have those files?
- Ok I think it's because I had the beta version previously, but I wasn't able to get the prompt when installing Edge Chromium the first time to import favorites and everything else in the new Edge. What I did is that I convert all my reading list in HTML file export and my tabs set aside into favorites from the old Edge and I did a manual import into the new Edge.
- Well that's unfortunate..how many saved reading lists did you have in your legacy Edge?
I don't have that option.
well now i just installed Edge stable on my computer from here

and here are the info about reading list
- I know, but they are not there.
