Can someone tell me the steps in restoring my Outlook Contacts folders from
back-up files after a system restore and reinstallation of Outlook?

Copy the .pst file to your preferred location. Open it in Outlook using
file-open-outlook data file. This restores all of your data, not just
Outlook.

Hi

you'll need to explain first:

version of outlook before and after reinstallation
exactly how you backed up the files
what else you have done so far to install the outlook files
