After adding a Command (such as "Collapse all groups") to an Existing Menu on
the top of the contacts page the command is no longer there when I close
outlook and reopen it,
I right click in the menu bar space - click the view category - choose and
then drag the "Collapse all groups" command over to the menu on the toolbar -
and then release the mouse button. It works fine until I close down.
Please help.

Try deleting %AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\outcmd.dat and trying again.
