I have my hard-drive from my now dead Widows 7 PC (NTFS); On it will be the contacts from the Windows Live mail; We have successfully attached this working hard drive to another working Windows 7 machine and wish to get the contact data (Perhaps emails too) into a clean Windows Mail live profile, on another machine; We do have access to all the files (Including App Data folders) in the old User profile of the drive, but I need to know what files/path to use to transfer the old contact data into the the fresh Live mail profile on the other machine (Also windows 7); please provide me with further information/help on where the data is and how I transfer it over?

It looks like before long I will (under sufferance) have to transfer my emails use to the windows 8.1 email app and I guess the online Outlook.com contacts (People) list; so I assume I have to restore my Contacts data to Windows7 Live Mail first and that I will not be able to import my contacts directly into the (online) outlook/people.live.com web-based list? from the existing hard drive data; I.e. there is no MS utility to transfer the data for me?

Thanks in advance;

Lance.
