Error message being displayed when trying to open Access Files - "Configuration Error"
Thank you for the response. I've not worked with Access before, So not 100% sure how i would complete some of the steps your provided in regards to the information i have to hand.
To uninstall Office from the device, I used a script provided by Microsoft which removes all traces of MS from the device so when its reinstalled it is a fresh install of office.
I reverted it back to 2 different version of Access: Version 2008 (Build 13.127.20296) released in August 31. And Version 2009 (Build 13127.20508) released in September 09.
I also updated the software to the newest version available Version 2010 (Build 13328.20292)
In regards to your other questions im unsure right now i've never used Access before and not 100% sure how they have set it up, Ill get a remote connection to the test device we set up and look into gathering the other information.
Hope the above information may shed some light on what we completed so far.
Regards
Ryan
- Oct 31, 2020Because default office installation is now 64-bit, if be curious to uninstall Office and install the 32-bit version and see if that gets around this issue.
- Oct 31, 2020Based on the build numbers you must be on either the monthly or insider's update channel. This is risky and means you will continuously get the most recent updates, which means all the new bugs! If switch update channels and hold back. It's revert back several more versions.
Is your office installation 32 or 64 but?
Was the database made for 32 or 64 bit version of Office?
I'd start by copying your database file(s) locally to your PC, use the shift bypass to get into the database, delete all your linked tables and recreate them.
Do you use any VBA code? If so, ensure it compiled without errors.
