  1. For me MS Outlook are very important software, because I work with it on my work quite often. And once something happened with my working emails. I couldn't find the solution immediately. But today I have opened the Google and by accident observed on a soft blog - recover outlook contacts. The application helped me for seconds, perhaps it will help in this situation.
