We have an application which was working okay till last month. But after the last windows update our clients are getting issues with access database. access database got corrupted.  We ran compact and repair. But it still getting corrupted again and again.  This issue started right after the window update. clients are on different OS. Like server 2018, server 2012 and windows 10.

Is there anything i have check in new windows update or any other step to prevent database corruption?

    Sorry the above post is long & rambling, I have been unable to post & simply copied & pasted my notes because every time I tried to reply, I got Opps, something went wrong try again & was expecting the same. Oddly I could not post under Bignose2 as I have before no problem, this is another MS account & it worked so not sure why this community won't accept. no sign of issues or locked or anything. Sorry, rambling again.

    Anyway I have done quite a few tests & in the past by now sure to have had corruption so very hopeful, 1809 prob will break something else!

    Had been working fine for many years. I have been getting an 'unrecognized database format' starting about 1 1/2 months ago. I was getting regular updates for my windows 10 computers.  The crashing occurred many times on a network with 11 users (not all using access at the same time).  At first it happened a few times a day. My network guy changed the computer that seemed to cause the access program to crash back to windows 8. That person stopped causing the crashing. Then someone else crashed it. My network guy changed 2 computers back to windows 8 and now someone else on the network is causing the issue. All seems to be happening at the end of the day when someone is adding a new record.

    Did you implement the disable leasing registry workaround?

    ACCDB file in place of our client/front end ACCDE made no noticeable difference, unfortunately. Still painfully slow.

    Sorry, was hoping that would work AND be the *clue* we needed.
