I spotted that the contacts folder is not capitalized. In the Start menu search line, type shell:Contacts and press Enter to see if it opens the C:\Users\Contacts folder instead and not a contacts one.

Les,

I'm not sure why that when you click on a empty space in the right main pane of that window and follow the tutorial to select the Contacts template that you do not get the New Contact button.

Right click on the C:\Users\(user name)\Contacts folder and click on Properties, Location tab, and Restore Default button, and OK.

Les, I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted.

Yes, you can place a contact group in the Bcc field.
