I need to save my contacts in Outlook by moving them elsewhere while I do a
system restore on my computer. I cannot find a way to copy the out of
Outlook. Is that an option?

Close Outlook. Make a copy of your pst file. Where that is located, depends
on your OS.....
 
Thank you. I am not very computer savy but I'm learning fast. What exactly
is a pst file and where would I look? I am running on Vista.

The default file name is outlook.pst and the default location is:
C:\Users\{Your User Name}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook
You may have to enable Hidden Files in Windows Explorer to see it.
(Tools-Folder Options-View)
