Trying to find a copy of Access 2010 Runtime

[Phil Halton]

Hi, does anyone know where I can download a copy of Access 2010 runtime?

I need to test a .ade file on Windows 11.

I do not, but Google does?

Make sure you download the correct bit version.

Many thanks, I cannot believe it was that easy. For some reason Google just showed me lots of unsavoury sites when I tried it.

What can I say?
Clear your cache?

Ok, it isn't that easy. The download link is only the service pack. When you run it, it says that there are no products on the current system to be affected and exits.

Sounds as if I do need the original version of the Access 2010 Runtime.

Hi
When you go to the Microsoft Site it gives the following message when trying to download the 2010 Version.
We're sorry, this download is no longer available.

Perhaps one of the following links will help you find what you need.

Hi
You can get both 32 & 64 Bit versions from this site:-

Sorry, I looked to see if a service pack included original files, and it said it did.

[Phil Halton]

Unfortunately not, looks as if it redirects to a Microsoft site that doesn't exist.

So frustrating.

[Phil Halton]

Yep, looks as if Microsoft don't want anyone to have that version. Links don't help, I am afraid.

[Phil Halton]

I know, I was hopeful, but the description lied.

Are you aware that by renaming a file .accdr it will run as runtime when using a full version of access?

[Phil Halton]

Hi, yes, I am aware. I need to test an ade file which is only supported by Access 2010 and lower.

Phil, Booted up an old machine running Windows Vista and found this in folder 'Access2010Runtime' with file date 11/4/2010:
Ah, won't upload due to file size, even zipped. PM me your email address and I can pass it on.
