that you export your tag configuration before and after tag modifications.

Select multiple tags by pressing the Control key and selecting the individual tags.
Select contiguous tags by pressing the Shift key and selecting the first and last tags of the sequence.
Select the Delete button.
The Delete Tag window appears.
Select either Remove Tag from System or Stop Data Collection and select OK.
If you want to stop collection temporarily and resume collection later for a specified time, you can disable collection for that tag instead. To do this, select the tag on the Tag Maintenance page, select Collection, and then select the Disable option for the Collection field.
