    Recovering Lost Contacts, Calendar, & Email Settings From Mail Application.


    I foolishly unplugged my desktop before it had finished closing down!


    I have been able to repair Windows 10 itself and everything now seems to run fine, BUT all of my Contacts & Calendar data has gone, as has all of my email settings in Mail. Is it possible to recover these? If so, how?


    Interestingly, Calendar often tells me that if I can't find old entries, "not to worry" they are "still there" and can be retrieved - but doesn't tell me how!


    Any assistance gratefully received!

    Win Live Mail lost some contacts


    If the account is a Microsoft account then WLMail isn't compatible with the new sync protocol so you'll lose your Outlook contacts & calendar, the only option is to use the inbuilt Windows Mail for hotmail/outlook/live accounts which will sync contacts & calendars for Microsoft accounts.
    Your email folders are under: C:\Users\yourcomputername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\ look for the windows live mail folder within there are your accounts, just open the account folder & copy your emails into the new email client. Never moved contacts list so can't help there.

    Email contacts missing


    1. If you open Mail app and click the + sign for New mail > type first couple of letters of a contact name > will a list of suggested names appear ?

    2. Go to All apps > scroll to P > click People. Is the contact list there ?
