I recently re-loaded a new copy of Windows 10 after having used a downloaded free copy for some time. I lost my Windows Live Mail program and found it difficult to download a new copy. I now have no Thunderbird contacts but still have the contacts file in my user folder. How can I import these contacts into Thunderbird?

I can't understand your instructions, I'm thick, I'll have to enlist the help of a friend. Thanks anyway, I'll report back later.

Thank you. I must have overlooked the WLM Import/Export on the Contacts page. I used the CSV file and it worked great.
