Where can I locate my groups in Outlook and how can I manage them?

Hi DebRodgers and Lovielu,

Let me assist you with your concern. We understand that you're unable to access and manage your groups. I would like to inform you that there has been a recent change in the People page and part of that update is the steps in managing your Groups. The list filter and groups dropdown is no longer there. You can view your Groups at a glance now because they’re displayed in the regular contact list.

You may follow the steps below on how to add/delete member from a created group:

1. Go to Peoplepage.
2. Locate and click the group name in your contact list.
3. Click Edit on the red bar.
4. To delete a member, click the X button at the bottom right of your contact's picture.
5. To add a member, type the contact's name in the Add member box and click the desired contact from the dropdown option.
6. Click Save.

For more information about the new changes in People page, you may refer on the article below:

How do I add a contact to an existing Group in this new Outlook??

Let us know if you need more help.

Thank you.

To create/add a contact:

3. Enter all the necessary contact information.
4. Click Save.

To edit a contact:
