Organizing and accessing contact information in Outlook.com
Hi,
We were wondering if you can send us screenshot of the Folders/Contact groups that you have, and how you delete it.
Thank you.

I have my Outlook.com account on my iPhone. There has always been a few contact groups that I don't use, however lately it has expanded to 6 extra unwanted groups. Is there any way to get rid of these? Some of them don't even show up on Outlook.com and just on my iPhone. I don't have my account linked up with Skype or Facebook.

2016-09-07T00:20:35+00:00 Thanks, but there is no Delete option when right-clicking. The only option is "Manage". If I choose that, a window pops up to "connect Office 365 to your networks".
Some of them also give this message "error. Failed to compare two elements in the array."
There are also folders on my iPhone that don't show up in Outlook.com
It appears that these are created automatically and don't have a way to delete them.

It's seem that what you are seeing were contact folders of Outlook. Login to Outlook.com on your browser, then go to people, click your contacts to see the contact folders. Right the un-necessary folders and select delete. Click this LINK for reference.
Keep us updated, thanks.

The first deals with Outlook 2010.
The second deals with Email groups.
My problem concerns Contact Groups in Outlook.com web email.
