where did everything go?????

[Round Talble Pizza]

When my laptop updated yesturday it replaced my outlook with windows mail.
It did not ask me if I wanted this. ALL my contacts are gone, as well as
ALL the appointments on my calander. Why did this happen, and more
important how do I get my contacts back.

No update replaces Outlook. You probably somehow set Windows Mail as you
default mail handler instead of Outlook.
You can change it back via Start-> Default Programs
or
Start Outlook and it will probably nag it you want it to set it as your
default mail handler.

I don't know; did you look at the tracks to see if it got hit by a train?

What "crossing" are you talking about?
Please don't use cutesy terminology. We will need a detailed
description of what you did.

What update are you talking about? There is no update that replaces
Outlook with Windows Mail.

Crossing. Medical terminology for connecting one heart valve to another one. He
(Dr.) meant when he transferred from one mail account to another (Guess everyone is
stuck in their own field in a way)

Your contacts are in your Contacts folder, of course. There is no "address
book".

Except it seems to me that transplant would be accurate.
