Managing tabs, address bar, and search settings in Edge on Windows 10
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
I loved the save tabs feature on the previous version of Edge. I was excited when a new version became available, but after I finished downloading it I noticed that this feature doesn't seem to be included. I had some tabs saved on the older version, and I would really like to get them back. Is this feature included in the new Edge? Is there a way to get my tabs back that were saved? Please help!

MS might defend themselves by saying reopening previous session works so well now that this guarantees the same facility. Which o.c. is not the case.
They should even expand it by making it possible to give saved windows a name.
I don't know if everyone else's is like this, but my edge auto-updated this week and I have been having difficulty finding my saved tabs. But I found them!
However, if you add your favourites bar to the top of the browser screen, there should be an 'Other favourites' folder to the right of the bar. In here, there is a 'tabs set aside' folder which has all my saved tabs from before the new version was downloaded. Each set aside group of tabs comes in a group folder (i.e. if you set aside 5 tabs one day, they will come in a folder titled 'Group X'. The group folder numbers seem to ascend with date (i.e. Group 1 will be the first ever tab you set aside, and Group X will be the latest you've set aside - in my case Group 48!)
Hope this helps?
I changed the default search provider but only stuck with the old Microsoft Edge because of exactly this feature. Going to a chromium based browser is fine Microsoft. But if you aren't going to keep the workflow items in place to distinguish your browser, why do you even bother having one at all?
This thread tells me I'm far from alone in this opinion that storing our sessions away, exactly the way we left them, to be able to continue them later even after shutdown and reboot was a big selling point to using Edge over other browsers. Can you guys go recode the feature and fix this issue already before we end up leaving your product behind because it has no distinguishing features of note?
Got caught with this retrograde step in May 2020.
As a partial workaround, you can right-click the group:
* open the group in a new window (and close the whole window later.)
* delete
* etc
Still no obvious way to simultaneously save ALL tabs to a group or collection.
