Default how to Backup contacts in outlook

Good Morning,

I have a sales guy who has recently overwritten all of his contacts with his
smartphone, this cannot happen again. I would simply like to back up my huge
contacts list in outlook.... just in case.

Thanks

With outlook *closed* simply copy the data files, outlook.pst is the default
name. (a hidden file, search for *.pst)
Or use the free outlook backup addin available from MS Outlook site
