Hi,
after 2004 update I'm not able to use my old ERP based on a share Microsoft Access Database (.mdb).
In my event viewer I also notice some strange ESENT 642 errors related to db.
Do you have any idea about what to do and how I can recover my old db?

    You could rollback to previous Windows version by:
    Click on Update & Security, then Recovery on the left
    Now click on Get started under ‘Go back to the previous version of Windows 10.

    Windows 10 automatically creates a copy of the previous version inside the Windows.old folder in C partition during each upgrade in case the installation breaks and rollback is necessary
    If the Windows.old folder isn’t available, then you won’t be able to uninstall the feature

    Hi,
    I uninstalled last Windows Feature update and I solved for many computers, but I also notice that also on another PC, updated to the last version, the db is back to work.
    Do you know in which update is the trouble? Until now it's a bit hard for me to understand where the problem is

    I've read something from Microsoft attesting the end of support for certain kind of dbs. I didn't know they made a step back solving the problem, but I need to investigate more
