Removing Google contacts from outlook.com people

This kind of response is unacceptable.  "...may not be applicable..."  Well, is it or isn't it?  You should know.

You just have people creating new threads with the same problem all over the place, which conveniently means you don't have to actually address it anywhere.  It just starts the cycle all over again with a Microsoft employee asking "Can you please provide the specific error message you are getting?"

Then, instead of one continuous thread where people can see the progression of solutions, you have a dozen incomplete threads that are going to come up when a user searches the forums. If we are lucky some kind soul might go to one of those and point people back to this so we can have some shred of usefulness.

Your comment should have been something along the lines of "I'm sorry this problem has not been fixed in 4 years. Here are the current work-arounds."

Didn't work instantly . As you said if the contacts don' get deleted automatically after 24hrs then what to do then?

Do you have a solution then ? 

Can this work?

I delete my account and data completely and then recover my id after some day . Will data still be there .

Tell me what you think .

Nope

The deleted contacts that outlook.com added by itself from the google account came back (some of them). I reconnected the google account and the google contacts folder came back... it got populated with the contacts... and when it finished syncing, they just disappeared... That's amazing... alll of them, I didn't do anything.

Since then I've deleted all my contacts again... (the ones that come back when they feel like it). I deleted them using the IE6 trick (again), I disconnected the google account and I hope I have no contacts. I'll wait for some time to see if the contacts come back unexpectedly or not (it's never all of them, just some) and then... if they  don't come back, I'll try to reconnect the google account... and then see if they don't disappear out of the blue.

Just in case someone's is getting lost.

The contacts folder (not he google contacts) is empty but it gets populated with some of my google account contacts even when the google account is disconnected. I delete them and they come back as I said it's never all of them, just some. They also appear to be linked to some google contacts that I do not have because I've disconnected the account and deleted all of them. So they're link with the contacts in a folder that doesn't exist.

When I do connect the account, the google account folder is there again, it gets populated with ALL my google contacts and when it finishes syncing... voilà, all of them disappear. The folder remains but empty... and no matter how much I wait, they never get back... 

I know it's seems crazy, but it's not. It's a fricking mess that Microsoft is not caring about.

I have the same exact problem!  Have you received an answer?
