Unable to import Contacts in RC2

Done a clean install of RC2 today and after transferring files with Easy
transfer from Build 5728 found that my Contacts folder was empty. I cannot
find the Import/Export selection in Windows Mail to import the details from a
`Backup`

Re: Unable to import Contacts in RC2

Easiest is just find the older WAB file from the backup and double click it
when found to import the Contacts from it into Windows Contacts folder.
