Enable All Macros Via Registry or Bat File

[Mike505]

The environment is Access 2021 32 bit, Windows 11 Home.



If you create a brand new accdb with one form and one button on the form that does nothing and then run the accdb, you'll get a warning that you must enable content. If you do that it runs.
If you don't do that but go into the Trust Center and Enable All Macros, it runs even though there were no macros.
So what do you do if the application is running on a machine with only the Access Runtime and there is no way to get to the Trust Center?

By the way, this happens even if the location of the accdb is in a folder that's setup as a Trusted Location in the Registry.

I'm wondering if there's a Registry setting or bat file command(s) that could mimic what you can do in the Trust Center.
I'm fairly certain that this is a recent problem.

If I look at the Trust Record created by Access when allowing it to enable all content, I can see what it did on my machine but if a try to copy that same data into a Trust Record of the Registry of the Runtime machine, that won't work.

TIA, Mike
