Default print labels in Word using Windows Contacts

Is there an Option in Windows Contacts to initiate a mail merge from that
application rather than from Word (as there is in Outlook Contacts)?

As far as I know, you have to click the Export option in the Contacts menu,
export to .csv format, and try to use that as the data source for your
merge.

If you do not see the Export option, you have to use the View menu option
(not the "Views" menu option in the lower menu), then "Customize this
folder", then in "Use this folder type as a template" select "Contacts".
