I have a ongoing problem with Windows 10 when using Access 2010. All of the Access objects will get dropped. It appears to be something with the OS configuration but I cannot track it down. If you press F11 to view the objects, the pane will be blank. If it is open, they will just disappear after a time forcing a restart of Access. If you are in the middle of development, your changes will be lost. Again, it appears to be a background maintenance process that updates the system and Access loses connectivity.
I do not have this issue with Windows 7. I have not tried on Windows 8.
Thank you
Scott
Update:
Discovered that the issue is likely Group Policy as the Access Database is on a mapped drive. The GP was set to Replace rather than Update causing the connection to get dropped. Testing Update to verify that the problem is resolved. Will post findings....

Update: Adjustment to the Group Policy corrected the issue. Objects are no longer dropped in MS Access 2010 when database is located on a mapped drive.
