When you want to transfer your Outlook contacts to another computer, you can use a flash drive. A flash drive is a portable storage device that connects to other devices through USB. When you plug the flash drive in a computer's USB port, the computer recognizes the device and allows you to open, view and copy files from the drive to your computer. To save your Outlook contacts to a flash drive, you must export a copy of your address book.
Step 1
Plug your flash drive in an available USB port. Close the "AutoPlay" dialog box if it opens on your screen.
