    Windows Live Mail Contacts


    I originally had over 100 contacts in Windows Live Mail, but now only 20 are shown. I have a full image backup of my C drive, which is several months old, and a number of incremental backups, the last being just a few days old.

    I don't know how the majority of my contacts disappeared from WLM.

    I can access the folders and files included in my image backups.

    How do I retrieve the lost contacts?

    Please advise.

    Thanks and regards, Roy

    I signed in to Windows Live Mail, then clicked on Contacts, and found that all my contacts were there.
