#149 Unable to open accdb file
Trying to open an access DB file. Downloaded and installed MS distributables. Had to install 64 bit as my PC would not support standard version. Tried uninstall and reinstall and reboot. Still same issue as getting error need to install distributatables.

Hi,
MDB Admin is a 32-bit (x86) application that requires the corresponding 32-bit release of the Microsoft Access Database Engine package.
64-bit (x64) operating systems feature native backward compatibility for 32-bit software and drivers via the WOW64 subsystem. Consequently, direct OS architecture constraints should not prevent execution. What specific error codes or installation logs were generated during the setup process?
If the failure stems from dependency conflicts with an existing Microsoft Office deployment (x86/x64 cross-architecture incompatibility on the same host), consider installing an alternative version of the Database Engine redistributable package. The alternative installer is available in the project's download section.
