Clarification on U S Probate records

@mayimagpie asked a question about the missing Pennsylvania Probate. The answer was given than Pennsylvania Probate records are not part of the current collection in full-text search.

Missing Collections?

I'm researching my Potter County, PA ancestors and it looks like their probate collection isn't included in full-text search. The only results I get are from their Property record collection. I'm really hoping this is an error, Potter County has been painful to research! If it's related to restrictions on the collection, please let me know who I would need to contact about removing the restriction.

Interesting to note that the FS Wiki specifically notes, in Pennsylvania Probate, that it IS part of the full-text search collection. Under online resources: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Pennsylvania_Probate_Records "Full-Text Search - Probate Records at FamilySearch."

Perhaps the question from @mayimagpie should be revisited.

Thank you.

The previous post was specific to the image collection "Pennsylvania probate records : COLLECTION RECORD, 1683-1994." Although there are Pennsylvania probate records included in the full text search, this specific image collection is not. The collections listed in the wiki page does not include this specific collection. Note the words "COLLECTION RECORD" in the title of the collection.
