My Outlook contacts being held hostage by iCloud.

My Outlook contacts being held hostage by iCloud. The folders on my device are no longer accessible and I get the following message when attempting to access the iCloud folders... "The set of folders cannot be opened. MAPI was unable to load the information service (lists drive). Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.

It had always worked perfectly fine before. Now what?

Exchange contacts are duplicated in Contacts app When I select to use contacts through my Exchange account on my MacBook Air, I end up with 2 contacts folders and 2 suggested contact folders, which duplicates all the contacts. I have turned contacts off and on. I've tried different combinations of restarts and contacts on/off numerous times but I cannot figure out how to fix this issue. I don't use iCloud for contacts. I don't use a PC at all (which came up in another thread about this issue) I don't have the duplicate issue on any other device (iphone/ipad/Macbook Pro), just MacBook Air. I typically use Mac Mail, but have checked Mac Outlook and the contacts are not duplicated there. The contacts are not duplicated on the Exchange Server MacOS Catalina - 10.15.3 Macbook Air Mid 2012 Does anyone have a solution for this issue? Thanks, Kim
