unable to open MDB file on server

Hi,

situation :

MDB file on SBS2003 server, used by 4 or 5 users simultaniously (on XPP pc's)
witout problems. File is always in use by one of these users, so .ldb is
always present.

problem :

on a newly configured XPP portable I made a shortcut on the desktop to the
MDB file and when I doubleclick it nothing happens (no error messages ; just
nothing at all). When I try to open the mdb file by clicking it via the
windows explorer (on mapped network drive) nothing happens.

Opening the MDB by first opening MSAccess and then selecting the database
works...

What could be the problem here ?

I've been reading all the threads about problems with LDB files but my specific problem doesn't seem to be addressed. I have a back end database on a server that I'm unable to run Compact and Repair on because the LDB file is still present. It tells me it is being used by a user "Admin" on my machine (a fact that is echoed when I open the LDB file in Notepad.) Unfortunately there is no username "Admin" on the network. When I try to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
