However, I agree with the other suggestions here – if one can NOT un-install the ms-access, then consider just leaving it alone and installing the newer runtime – the newer version will “hi-jack” the access file extensions, and I would just “leave” the old So solutions to fix one or the other will apply here! The location of runtime and location of full edition are identical in nature and in location. And the same applies for un-installing the runtime, or full edition – all problems and issues are THE SAME problem! So the install of full edition of Access and the runtime require the SAME location. And to “save” a whole bunch of responders here? Yes, in the “list” of installed applications you will see the runtime, but it is a “fake” entry if theįull edition been installed! The path name and location of the runtime dll’s are identical to the full version in both cases! So both Access 2010, and 2010 runtime are not allowed on the same computer. For all purposes, they are the SAME install and SAME location.

with the exception of the ability to design having been removed In other words you cannot install both Access 2010 and the Access runtime 2010 on the same machine (it is NOT possible since they are installed in the same location and contain the same dll’s etc.

True, but they install to the EXACT same location and all the files in both cases have the exact same name and location.
