How to unblock Macros in Access?

Hello,

can someone help me to unblock (I assume) macros in Access.

I had a problem yesterday and deleted Access database from my hardware.

Microsoft team was completely useless and did not help me with recovering it. But my daughter helped me to recover it with Recuver.

So i got my Access database back, but half of the data corrupted.

Once i try to open it, this message pops up: 'The active content in this file is blocked. review your trust center settings or contact your IT administrator.'

I do not know what is IT administrator in my case, nor what to review in trust centre which i found in Options.

can anybody help me, please?

kind regards,

Diana

    If you couldn't open the file how do you know half the data is corrupted?

    Trust Center settings is a well documented issue. George showed you where to update your Trust Center settings.

    If you have a critical Access database then you should be backing it up regularly to prevent these kind of issues.
