Delete OE 6.x Address Book.

What is the quickest way to Delete the OE 6.x Address Book?

I tried change the Store Folder but it left the Address Book.

The Address Book isn't in the store folder. Open the Address Book | Help |
About shows the location.

Why do you ask? Do you really only want to delete all of your contacts?

Actually, it's called the Windows Address Book and there's an Address Book
for each Windows User Account. If you delete it but don't also delete the
OE identity/identities with which its associated, it will be recreated
automatically. If you delete it and you also delete the OE
identity/identities with which its associated, a default (and empty) Address
Book will be recreated in the User Account when you reboot.

configured in Excel.

If you just want to delete all the contacts, highlight one and then Ctrl+A
will highlight the rest. Click Delete.

Or close OE and delete your identity's Address Book. When you re-open OE, a
new (and empty) one will be created automatically.
