May 02, 2021Hello!
The easiest way will be to create a new Outlook account and thus separate your private contacts and work contacts, and certainly such a separation will provide a new Microsoft account where you will not sync with the previous account.
And the old account will require - manual removal of unnecessary contacts!

- F_G_TMay 02, 2021Copper ContributorHi AndrzejX,
Thanks for your reply.
The fact is that I do not have any personal contact.
The ones I am talking about are only old email address I used during many years.
Outlook memorised them and I don't know how to remove them manually because they only appear in my iPhone app.
I search Outlook website and there is no trace of them.- DeletedMay 02, 2021Yes, because the synchronization concerns the Microsoft Account and contacts associated with it and there was an automatic export of them, but I do not know how to stop it!
This solution is the iPhone and its memory that synchronizes contacts and there you need to perform the action, but I do not know this system - maybe someone else will help , but we already have preliminary findings, maybe you fix it yourself Good luck!- F_G_TMay 02, 2021Copper ContributorHi AndrzejX,
I have 2 Hotmail accounts; I went through both Outlook and Microsoft websites, for each account, deleting any data e settings regarding the privacy.
After, I uninstalled and reinstalled my iPhone Microsoft Outlook app.
With genuine enthusiasm I went to check the app, and there, where the magnifier symbol is, at the top of the page I found again all the old email contacts. 😞
One thing I discovered anyway, even if you uninstall the app, when you install it again, it finds in the system the accounts you had on it;
May be finding a way of uninstalling completely the app.......
I leave it to who knows more than me!
Many Thanks
