After Marshmallow update contacts in HTC one M8 are gone

I updated my HTC one M8 to Marshmallow, now all my contacts are gone. Tried to use the HTC sync Manager where I have my back up, but it doesn't recognize the phone. HELP!

Haven't you backed up your contacts to Google?

Check on Google Contacts - they should all be there. (If they aren't, you entered them as Device contacts [the default, unfortunately], not Google contacts, and they're gone.

Strangely I had this too. It seemed to have defaulted to Google Plus contacts or something similar. Why I don't know but they were there after changing it
