Access doesn't display OLE pictures after Windows 11 update

[david.cortes]

Hi everyone!



Today I installed Windows 11 update on my computer and that affected Bound object frames in my forms.

As you can see in the next screenshot, I had some controls holding an embedded picture that is tied to a table field and I used them to display hazard pictograms.



But after that update, the controls no longer display the pictograms.

Does anyone know what could happen? Is it something related to Paint? (See the text that appears in the table where i stored the pictures) Thank you in advance for your help!

What was in that field before?

What was in that field before?

If I remember correctly, the text "Bitmap image" used to appear.

I haven’t made any changes to the data. In fact, if I double click on the field, the image opens in paint.


The main problem is that since the update, embedded objects in Access forms and reports do not display properly (cannot be seen).

when you say 'bound to a field' what does that mean? the field is a text field storing the path to the image? or you are using an OLE or attachment field?

I am using an OLE field. In that field I saved images in bitmap format (.bmp)
