Access Installs Every Time I Open It. How To Troubleshoot This Issue?

I can understand your issue (Access installs every time I open it). I can help you to troubleshoot this issue.

1. Close all the MS Office apps.
2. Go to the location where Access is installed.
3. Default location – C:/Program Files or Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Office/Your Office version.
4. Click on View.
5. Uncheck the box that says to hide file extension.
6. Look for msaccess.exe.
7. Rename it to “msaccess.old.”
8. Launch the Access app again.
9. It will go through the installation process all over again.
10. After the process completes, close Access.
11. Start it again, and you will not face any error.
