Delete the contacts file directly?

Hi.
Any fast way to get rid of a messy contact list? My one was
not so well transferred from outlook.

How about to delete the respective file with File Manager directly. Since there is no reinitialize feature?

Their is the master reset function which will reinitialize the whole phone. I've done this already to fix a crashing problem, and it will wipe out all of your contacts. It is under control panel:device:master reset

I am afraid he is right, by the same token a friend of mine was trying to get the contacts from his sim from at&t to his new sim from t mobile, unfortunately his phone is sim locked, so i proposed to take his sim and copy from his sim to say my business folder in contact to then copy it to his other sim, i know i probably lost a lot of you but for the others, why couldn't you copy all to the contact business folder for example? the only option is copy to contact in wich way his contact would of been mixed with mine.

...sems to work for a very short while. Means I have an empty contacts file.
Then the whole stuff is back at once.
How comes?
