In Edge Collections, how do I sort collections alphabetically? It used to be easy to do.

Here is hoping Microsoft reads this and check's in the correct DLL for edge so we get the sorting feature for Edge browser collections back at the next Edge update.

That is exactly my experience as well. It seems that Co-Pilot is serving up old information. What was described is how it used to work before some genius on the Edge team decided to de-feature one of the better parts of Edge making it essentially worthless.

When I click collections and click three dots I get menu with option - Manage - When I select manage I get the manual reorder option only. No Sort option!

I thought I'd ask Co-pilot (after all, it's MS's own AI, so I'd get the best possible answer, wouldn't I?). So, here's how it went:

According to the web search results, there are different ways to sort collections alphabetically in Edge depending on the version and the device you are using. Here are some possible methods:

• On the home page in Edge, to the right of the address bar at the top, click the Collections icon, then on the resulting menu, click the three dots at the top of the menu, and you should see the sorting options^1^
• On any of your collections, tap the three dots button and then tap reorder. Tap and hold next to a card and then drag it up or down in the list to move it. Tap done^2^
• Open the collections menu, click the Ellipse (…) icon to open the “Sharing and more” dropdown list. Select “Sort by Date created” or “Sort by name” (based on your specific preferences) to sort automatically sort all entries in your Collection^3^

I hope this helps you. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me.

As of Jan 2024 still cannot sort collections in alphabetical order.
