I am running a split Access (2007) database at a non-profit. It consists of two Laptops with a copy of the FE database, that are connected by wired Ethernet to a Desktop with the BE Database. All three computers are running Windows 10. That means that both Laptops are simultaneously accessing Tables back in the BE database, with Access handling the "Traffic Control". The System has worked well for several months in this configuration.
Recentlwy I replaced one of the Laptops with a newer HP Laptop - with a slightly newer version of Windows 10 from what we have been using.
Now only one of the Laptops at a time will run normally. When we try to run the second on simultaneously, we get an error message that says that the BE database has been Exclusively opened by another user. Keep in mind that NOTHING has changed here except inserting a Laptop with a newer version of Windows 10 into the System.
Can someone please tell me how to prevent this error?
Thanks in advance for your help.
