Microsoft Access and Outlook
Hi there, I have just updated my laptop (with a view for a faster laptop!) However, Access was working fine and now i can't send emails from access through outlook like before. I get a message...
In Outlook, go to File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Programmatic Access.
Check whether the Antivirus status shows Valid. If it does not, update or enable Windows Security or your antivirus, restart the laptop, and test again. Outlook can show this warning when antivirus protection is inactive or out of date.
I would not select Never warn, since that lowers the security protection around programmatic access.
If Programmatic Access is unavailable, or the antivirus status already shows Valid, ask your IT administrator to review the Outlook security policy applied to the device.
