Hi,
Here are some troubleshooting steps to get rid of the access crashing issues:
1: Decompile/Recompile the Database

2: Check System’s Memory Usage
If the Access database crashes on a few specific PCs only then it can be the issue of low memory space. So, just check out the memory space of your system before working on it.
3. Stop Anti-Virus Program
4. Import Database Objects Into A New Empty Database
5. Remove MS Access Standalone Version
Microsoft access keeps crashing when two different versions of the same software is been installed on the system. This indicates that your system is facing a resource utilization issue. Usually, this problem occurs when you have installed any packed version of the software and after then you have installed a standalone version over it.
And if these troubleshooting steps don’t work you can try the compact and repair method to repair MS Access.

suyashthomson mine is doing the same as of a few hours ago. Something has gone wrong with Microsoft. All my databases can't run queries. Just hangs, but if I create a new query it works.
- This problem has been reported to Microsoft.
As soon as we get any responses, it will be posted back here.
In the meantime, see if you can rollback to the last previous working version of Access.
