Windows Contacts

EN Texte en anglais Pas encore d'article dans ta langue : extrait en anglais.

Windows Contacts is a legacy special folder used for contact management that is included in Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and Windows 11. It replaced but retains most of the functionality of Windows Address Book and works with Windows Live Mail and the Vista version of Windows Mail for legacy purposes. Windows Contacts uses an XML-based schema format. Each contact appears as an individual .contact file, in which custom information including pictures can be stored. Windows Contacts features extensibility APIs for integration with other applications and for storing custom information. The legacy *.wab format and the open standards *.vcf (vCard) and *.csv (CSV) are also supported. Although it's incompatible with and functionally replaced by the newer People app and then later by Outlook for Windows, the folder still exists in the latest versions of Windows for backwards compatibility.
