What is the file location for WLM Contacts? I can easily access the contact list thru WLM itself, but I need to know the location of that file! In folder options, if I uncheck "Hide protected operating system files," I can reach this location:
Computer>System(C:)>Users>Our Name>AppData>Local>Microsoft>Windows Live
Contacts>Long string of alpha-numeric data>DBStore>Contacts. Contacts here is a EDB file, for which I cannot find a program that will open it. Any ideas out there? Thanks!!

You will find them in sub directories under -
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsLive\Contacts\ (Default\15.4\DBStore for example)
But they are no longer in open format, and are only readable with Windows Live.
