I can't scroll contacts in https://outlook.live.com/people/0/ in Firefox, Chrome, Edge and Opera. I get a visible list of about 12-14 A's but no more contacts than that, and no scroll bar. Can't scroll with mouse pad or mouse. I can click the 'A' to get the alphabet, but when I select another letter, I get the first contact's details for that letter, and the 'All contacts' list disappears. Clicking 'All contacts' does not bring back the list. The only way back to the original, partial list, is to select something other than 'All contacts' on the left pane, then try 'All contacts' again. This brings back the partial list of A's. Update 2022-10-20 (Thu), 8:00 AM: Refreshed page and there is now a scrollbar. Firefox and Chrome confirmed.

@wazz4444 The only thing I've changed recently is I've added some categories. Are you using categories at all? Yes, I also recently added a custom category to some contacts. It's the only category I use. Just the one. So, based on your comment, I deleted the category from all the contacts that had it, which deleted the category. Alas, this made no difference at all. The same problems persist.

Having exactly the same problem. Cannot scroll contact list beyond first few entries. Also, my email outgoing is being rejected by Yahoo as containing identified spam. These are normal conversations about hiking and do not contain spam. Once, I simply asked if the person received my email and it was rejected as containing identified spam! I am very frustrated as I do not have computer skills to deal with this and cannot seem to get any help from Outlook.

Having exactly the same issue so well described by DS-MSC Makes using Contacts un usable. This needs urgent escalated attention.
