How to import multiple contacts vCard VCF file into Outlook?
After many tries with different 3-rd party software this workaround did the job just fine and simple:
- Import file (from leftside menu "Import contacts") to Google Contacts https://contacts.google.com/ in a group named "Imported [date]" is automatically created
- Export (from top menu "More") "Imported [date]" group as Outlook CSV format
- Import it to Outlook: File/Open/Import/Import from another program or file/Comma Separated Values/ Choose source file/Choose destination Outlook folder/Finish
Note that Outlook failed to open the CSV file until I removed some contacts with Chinese characters.
I found an ok but not great solution to importing multiple *.vcf files into Win10 Outlook 2017 which does not require a plugin (but is a little mandrolic).
- Open up your contracts in outlook's
- Select all the contracts you want to import in the folder
- Drag and drop these contracts files onto Outlook's contact area
- Outlook will open each contact and you need to close each one click "yes" to saving the contents
It's a bugger closing and saving all the contact windows that pop up. But it work well for my 50 or so contracts and didn't require me installing any third-party extensions.
