Access freezes when I copy a record
Windows 11 Office 365 Access Suddenly, when I copied a record in the database Access froze as if it didn't have enough memory. I tried compact and repair, repairing Office, uninstalling and reins...
- I also did that and saw the problem remained
I am having the same problem with a database I have been using for more than 20 years with 12,000 entries. Recent change from Microsoft 10 to my new computer with Microsoft 11. Was not a problem before the change. I saw that you let Microsoft know, any word on if they have fixed it? Thanks for your work and help.

Brand new Windows 11 PC, out of the box, installed Office. Same problem, database is linked to SQL Server. Can copy the data in a single field/cell in a table just fine. If the user selects more than a single field/cell Access crashes, waited up to 5 minutes, nothing. Tried uninstalling update, unable to uninstall.
Been using this database for at least 20 years. Moved it to a Sharepoint Site, for all non-Win 11 users copying works just fine, for Win11 users, copying more than the data in a single field doesn't work at all.

- This is quite likely to be the result of the Windows bug previously reported in this thread. Microsoft is aware of it.
However, you say "Moved it to a SharePoint Site...." That's a bad idea. Trying to run an Access accdb from SharePoint creates problems. Move the Back End accdb of the relational database application to a shared folder on your network and give each user a copy of the Front End accdb, which is installed on their own computers.
