When I first used Fax and Scan (before installing Outlook), Windows Contacts
was my default address service evidently because when I went to fax someone
it automatically came up. After installing Outlook, when I go to fax, the
numbers I entered in Windows Contacts aren't available. Only Outlook
contacts pops up. So I went to the start menu and chose "default programs",
then "set your default programs", chose "Windows Contacts" and clicked on
"set this program as default". I was running as an administrator and I did
restart the computer. None of that helped. I can still get to Windows
Contacts from the start menu just not from Fax and Scan.
