Understanding ACCDB Issues


Typical ACCDB Opening Challenges

Microsoft Visual Studio is Not Installed

When trying to open your ACCDB file, you get the error "Can't Open ACCDB File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Visual Studio installed for %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your ACCDB because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: If you have another software that you know opens ACCDB files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.


Incorrect Microsoft Visual Studio Version

Sometimes your installed version of Microsoft Visual Studio won't support your Access 2007 Database File file. Download the latest Microsoft Visual Studio version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. Most of the time your Access 2007 Database File file was created by a newer Microsoft Visual Studio than what you have installed.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of ACCDB file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening ACCDB files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.


More Causes of Problems Opening ACCDBs

Even with the correct version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed, you can still experience difficulties opening ACCDBs. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening ACCDB files. Other contributing causes:

  • ACCDB file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the ACCDB file in the Windows registry
  • Defective install of a ACCDB program, such as Microsoft Visual Studio
  • File corruption affecting your ACCDB file
  • The ACCDB is infected with a virus
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your ACCDB file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Insufficient system resources to successfully open Access 2007 Database File files
