Default Contact folder to Outlook Address Book

Do you have to go to each individual contact folder and apply the "add to
address book" or is there a way to select them all and do it all at once?

Assuming you mean "Show this folder as an email address book," that's one at
a time.

Thanks for the speedy response, Russ.

Doing it individually is somewhat time consuming as I have a significant
number of contact folders.

Thanks for your help!

When you run into stumbling blocks like this, it may mean you are using
Outlook in a way it wasn't designed or for which it wasn't optimized.
Separate Contact folders can be useful, but there is rarely a need to create
that many. Have you looked into other ways to organize Contacts, like
Categories?
