I've worked as a computer consultant for 20 years. I have to say that Office 365 is the LEAST user friendly product I've ever seen. Impossible to do do simply things that in other products are intuitive. Right now I'm trying to export my contact list. When I search on this topic all the examples say something like go to OUTLOOK -> FILE --> OPTIONS --> ADVANCED.   After an hour of searching I dont find anything in outlook that says file . I find options but not Advanced and nothing else that leads to exporting

Microsoft 365 and Office | Install, redeem, activate | For home | Windows

Hi Steve,

I will assist you with the query you have in exporting contacts from Outlook 365.

You may follow the steps below to Export the Outlook contacts:

Open Outlook, click File, Open and export and then click Export to a file.

Once you are in the import\Export window follow the on screen instructions to export the items from Outlook.

If you want to import the data into Outlook, then you may refer to the direction mentioned in the link below:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/import-contacts-HA102919678.aspx

Note: Instead of Import, you need to look for the Export option in the above link.

I hope the above information helps. If you need any assistance reply and we will be glad to assist you.

Thank you.

    His reply refers to the Desktop version of Outlook - not the web version. No one has read the original issue.

    Only two options are presents - Restore deleted and Clean - nothing else.
