Apps / Software :: How To Open Access Database File
Mar 12, 2014
We got a new computer in the office and it is running Windows 8.1. We also have 2 older computers and they are running win XP. I have them all networked together and everybody can see and edit all files on any computer.So far so good.Here is the problem: MS Access will not open any database files. I get the attached popup. The file is not outside my intranet. It resides in a subfolder of "Documents". The folder is called "Data Base Files". As I said, the file can be seen by anu user, but can only be opened in the Windows 8.1 machine, where it resides. Q: how can I open the file on the XP machines? Of cause they all have Access installed. How do I get around the popup?

How do you want to open this type of file (.psd)?I'm choosing more options and picking photoshop as the default app, but nothing is happening. The same things happens to .torrent files, only works if i have the program open and drags the file into the program.
Files it happens with:
.psd
.torrent
.mobi
And the files are blank.
Cleaning and Tweaking tools I use:
Filehippo Update Checker.
Revo Uninstaller.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
Ccleaner.
Free Window Registry Repair.
Broken Shortcut Fixer.
Auslogics DiskDefrag.
Laptop Model: Lenovo B5400-computer

I'm on 64 bit and have 8.1 Pro installed. When I double click a file reader does not open. This wasn't the case before the upgrade. Tried multiple times but it just doesn't open. Went to Task Manager and noticed 8 instances of Acrobat Reader and shut them down all one by one. The files started opening again. After a while again I have to go back to the task manager and close reader which is cumbersome and irritating.

I recently installed Windows 8.1 from scratch. After installing Office 2013, I'm getting this error when launching Word: "Word could not create the work file. Check the temp environment variable." If I try to create a new spreadsheet in Excel, I get this error: "Microsoft Excel cannot open or save any more documents because there is not enough available memory or disk space." Memory and disk space are plentiful and definitely not the problem here.
Also, I can't save or open files downloaded with Internet Explorer, which I believe is related (explained below).
I tried running winword.exe /r and re-installing Office, but the problem remains.
I've verified that HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders is set to %USERPROFILE%AppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsINetCache in the Registry.
Research seems to indicate that the Temporary Internet Files location in Internet Explorer (!) is the likely cause of the problem. Internet Explorer shows the Current location field of Temporary Internet Folders is blank.
I've tried changing/setting the Temporary Internet Files folder to both C:UsersProfileNameAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsINetCache and C:UsersProfileNameAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsTemporary Internet Files, but I get this error: "Windows is unable to gather information about the location you have chosen. Please select another, or verify that you have access rights to the location." I'm running an Administrator account.
If I try to open either of those folders in Explorer, I get this error: "C:UsersProfileNameAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsINetCache is not accessible. Access is denied."
I've tried Taking Ownership of both folders. I've tried removing the Read-Only flag from both folders. I've tried editing the security permissions and adding my specific profile name (Administrators is already there). I still can't access those folders.

I have a new laptop which has Windows 8. I left it at work one day just screen locked and when I came back and entered my password, I saw that a wireless connection profile had been establihed under the name of "Iphone". I cleaned that profile but after that my laptop started to slow down very much. I reinstalled Windows 8 but the problem stays. Also the update database always crashes and I alwas have to fix it. I tried antivirus and antimalware software bout could not get a result. The machine is so slow on Internet and when I try to open a directory, it takes ages.

I have been trying to install a product called Thumbsplus which was giving me a ODBC Driver Manager Error - Database source name not found and no default driver specified error.
After trying a fews things I starting looking at the ODBC Data Source Manager in windows 8 and noticed that I could not access the System DNS tab. ( I would get a warning " you are logged on with a non-administrator privileges. ) even thought the account Is an administrator account. So I logged off and entered in as administrator and still the same message.
Something is wrong and I suspect it has little to do with the thumbsplus program as I should be able to enter into the system dns tab without receiving this error message.
PS: If I say OK after the dialog message the manager with open up and allow me to click the add button but since I dont know how to add the apropriate info there I did not go further, hence to say the error message probably did cause thumbsplus to not install correctly.

I have a bunch of folders that are shared from external hard drives, connected to my new windows 8 machine.
Other computers/phones/tablets at home on the same network can access folders from the internal HD on my main computer.
But, with shared folders from external hard drives - despite showing up while accessing the network cannot be opened or read from connected devices or other computers on the network.
I'm a relative amateur when it comes to networking but I did not have this issue with my older windows 7 home computer.

I have a program that used to run on win 7, but 8 wont let me open the file. I've tried the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter with no luck. After I select an O.S., it asks me to test the program. I click the option and it does nothing.

In w 8.1 If I open an app within seconds it loses focus. It makes it very difficult to type ie in e mail, the only way to get focus is to left click the mouse within the app and the cursor comes back for a few letters then the cursor disapears again. So any time I make an app active it becomes inactive quickly. To make it active again I have to click on it with my mouse.

I have put irfanview as my default image viewers of all types all over the system.
However, when I am using irfanview on a particular image, I want some other app to open the other images that I am trying to open. For that I have installed FastStone Image Viewer, so I want FSView.exe to appear in my RightClick - Open With defaults so that I can select it.
However I try, windows 8 is always showing
Irfanview
Microsoft Office 2010
Paint
Photos
Windows Photo Viewer
in that open with setting.
I have selected Faststone viewer a dozen time through disk, but it doesn't stick to the right click menu. Those names are always coming.
I don't want even to see 1. Microsoft Office 2010, 2. Photos, 3. Windows Photo Viewer in that list, I just don't want to use these three programs to ever open any of my images.
So I want, 1. irfanview, 2. paint, 3. Faststone viewer to appear in my rightclick openwith list.
How do I do it. I have tried control panel - Default programs. I have downloaded and run Default Programs Editor.exe mentioned elsewhere in this forum, but they don't give any option to "delete" there options of rightclick menu that keep on appearing.

Every time I open a picture it says "Always ask before open this file" ... over and over again, even when I uncheck it.
It never did this before till I had my computer reset to factory default at the repair shop. I am using Windows 8.1
It does it on about half the pictures that I have. I am working on a project and having to open lots and lots of pictures.

I found that whenever I open an app, such as 'Reader' they remain open even after I switch to something else. I know I could close them by swiping the upper left of the screen and select 'Close'.
Is there a way to have them close altogether when I'm done with them?

I've got an XP Virtual machine that I have on an SSD which I run from the USB port - I use this XP machine a lot on DIFFERENT computers -- It's got my Icelandic version of Office on it plus several other programs I use when I'm on a clients site so I don't have to install any special software on their laptops - It's also got my SAP GUI on it which I use to connect to various clients SAP systems.
However just this morning I can't boot up the VM -- get access denied messages to the VM files -- even on Administrator accounts.
Here's the screenshot of what comes up.
I've tried all the usual tricks like Run as administrator, give every possible privilege to the directory and files inside
First time I've had this problem since VISTA days. I really NEED to power on this virtual machine. I've posted here as it's not a VM problem itself but a Windows permissions one.
Update -- now solved --might not be the most sensible one but added my user name to the security privileges for the SSD -- I was already in the administrators group so why I needed to do this I haven't a clue but it worked.
