I divided my "Contacts" into subfolders according to
category. Now I want to "undo" this action and return to
having just one main "Contacts" list. How can I make all
those subfolders merge into the main Contacts folder?

State more clearly what you did and what you now want to do. Include Outlook
version. None of your post makes sense to me. You left out too many details.

open the folder and drag the contacts to the folder you want them in.

to assign categories before moving them, add a category to one contact and
choose the group by category view. Drag the contacts the that category.
