D an Advanced Search and include Hidden Files and Folders. Search for:

*.wab

You will probably find more than one an likely, the missing address will be
in one of them.

If you find it, the easiest way to get it back is to write it down and then
add it back in your current AB.

1. Enable Show Hidden Files and Folders:
www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html

2. In Windows Explorer, search on " *.WA* " (without the quotes).

3. If you find a file with a WAB~ extension, Copy (not Move) it to your
desktop, Rename it with a WAB extension, open it & see if the missing
address is listed.
