| | Contacts and Add New Contacts Icons gone AWOL OK, I used to have a couple of Icons in the top of the main CONTACTS Screen (i.e. click the Icon CONTACTS in the main WM page and that new screen that opens) These icons have disappeared. Only way to Add a new contact is via FILE/NEW/CONTACT from that screen. What happened to them? I see a post from another that uninstalling Update 933928 fixed this problem, it didn't for me. Appreciate some input Frenchy |

To fix the problem, use these steps: Open the Contacts folder Right-click on a blank area in the folder, and choose Customize This Folder...

| | Re: Contacts and Add New Contacts Icons gone AWOL WTG Ramesh, that was a perfect solution!! It is not immediately logical when going to the Customize This Folder (I had already looked there), but just clicking APPLY and it worked Much appreciated Frenchy "Ramesh, MS-MVP" <ramesh@XOX.mvps.org> wrote in message news:O2SgfYE1HHA.3940@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...
