How to transfer contacts from Windows Live Mail to Outlook (using VCF export)
To easily migrate to Outlook from Live Mail, you need a quick and efficient way to move Windows Live Mail contacts to Outlook. One such way is to use exporting to the Virtual Contact File format (VCF). We recommend using our Live Mail Contacts Converter utility for effortless conversion. Here is a step-by-step:
Step 1: Export Windows Live Mail contacts to VCF
Start the Windows Live Mail application
In the lower-left panel click the Contacts menu. This will open the contacts tab in the central part of the window. (you may press Ctrl+Shift+C to quickly open it)
Select the contacts you want to export (Press Ctrl+A to select all contacts).
On the toolbar (ribbon) of WLM select Export. (Alternatively choose menu File > export)
Select Business Card (VCF) as the output format.
In the exporting dialog, browse for any suitable folder to save the VCF file to. For convenience, you can save it to the Desktop.
