Contact Groups

Somehow the New Contact Group has disappeared from the Menu Bar of the
Contacts Window.

How can I create a new Contact Group?

Thanks

Re: Contact Groups

(boilerplate reply).....

When you have the Contacts folder open, you should have a button on the
toolbar for "New Contact", "New Contact Group", Import" and "Export". If
you don't see these buttons, the folder template got changed, as it
sometimes does...

Right-click on a blank area of the right pane, and select "Customize this
folder".
In the pull-down box, select "Contacts"
OK

Re: Contact Groups

Hi Lewis,

You will just need to change the folder template of the "C:\Users\(user name)\Contacts" folder back to "Contacts". This tutorial will show you how to.

Windows Explorer - Folder Type Templates

Hope this helps,
Shawn
