How to restore deleted and blocked contacts?

I recently deleted some contacts that were inactive for some time, and I
deleted and blocked few by mistake. What's the way to get a list of my
contacts added in last half year? So I can see what were those I deleted by
accident. They can't be found either on my Messenger blocked list or e mail
contacts list.

Greetings Maestral,

If they're not on the blocked/allow list, then they're gone for good I'm afraid.

If you signed in on a different computer or another Windows user account, you could use Nir's
tool to view the contacts stored locally:
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/live_me..._contacts.html

Make sure you don't sign in on that machine before you do it though or they'll be erased
there too.
