I used file explorer to go to my contacts directory and then selected a
contact and used "Open with" Notepad. While an intersting exercise I have
now screwed up my file associations so that when I double click a contact in
the contacts gadget - it opens in Notepad rather than Contacts.

Does anyone know where I can restore the .contacts file extension to open
with Contacts?
 
Right click on the .contacts file and choose Open With and then Browse to
c:\Program Files\Windows Mail\wab.exe and see if that works.

I actually found the solution - Use Windows FIle Explorer and go to the USERs
Contacts folder, Right Click on any contact listed in the Contacts folder and
open PROPERTIES - the "Open with" setting is at the top of the General tab in
Properties.

Thanks for taking time to help me.
