    Contacts have disappeared

    Can anyone help? This morning I logged into Windows Live Mail and all of my
    Contacts are gone. I am running this from my laptop which has Windows Vista.
    Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone have a solution?

    What do I import from? All my contacts were already in Windows Live Mail so
    I don't know which option to choose

    I too have this problem, I am trying to figure out a way to retrieve my
    contacts without rolling back to a previous image. I will repost if I find a
    solution.

    See my message earlier, and responses. Sounds like you may have the same
    problem.

    I have the same problem - Windows preformed an automatic update to Live mail
    & after the update all contacts have disappeared. the only way I get my
    contacts back is to do a system restore- but then the font on the live mail
    is large & I can not get it smaller. I hope someone has a fix- its driving me
    nuts.

    go to start - in the search bar type %userprofile%\contacts you should see
    your contact list there - then export them to a file on your desktop - open
    your live mail - & import them -- You have to set up your groups again but
    your contacts should come back.

    I found this tip on another post & it works!!

    normal person

    Me too. I hope they come up with a fix quickly. Very frustrating.
