We currently have a major issue using Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010. The engine comes in 64-bit and 32-bit forms, which is good. However, apparently you need to always install the 32-bit version if the host process is always 32-bit. Fine, we can do this.
Our software deals with a lot of legacy components that are 32-bit, and much of it is in VB6 code, which generates 32-bit assembly. So, we are under the assumption that the driver must also be installed as 32-bit. Indeed, when we install 32-bit drivers on a 64-bit machine, and run our 32-bit applications, it works correctly.
However, the problem begins when Office 2010 64-bit is installed on the system. Trust me, we've tried to educate users that 64-bit Office is largely unnecessary, to no avail. As computers come off the assembly line with 64-bit versions installed, we're unable to keep up with support requests when our software breaks something. Either the 64-bit Office breaks our installation, or our installation breaks their Office version, but it's not pretty either way. A further issue is that non-legacy software will sometimes install the 64-bit drivers (as they should), and the two versions simply do not coexist in any reasonable manner. Either our software breaks, or their software breaks.

- Sep 19, 2019 I'm trying to install the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable. The PC has Office 365 ProPlus and all Office applications are 32-bit and 2016. I've downloaded the 32-bit version of the component above but when I try to install it fails because apparently I have a 64-bit Office. Hi Alan Bourke, I try to made a test on my side.
- Jun 20, 2017 Microsoft has released an update for Microsoft Access 2016 64-Bit Edition. This update provides the latest fixes to Microsoft Access 2016 64-Bit Edition. Additionally, this update contains stability and performance improvements.
Install the Office 365 Access Runtime. The Office 365 Access Runtime files are available as a free download in either the 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) versions in all supported languages. Decide which bit version you need. For more information, see Choose between the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Office.
So, has anybody managed to find a way to make the 32-bit drivers coexist with 64-bit installations? I have seen that installing with
drharris/passive
flag allows the two to be installed, and our installer does use passive. Both are being installed, but once on the system either our software no longer works, or Office constantly repairs its installation. Cinema paradiso theme song. Is there any reasonable way to make this work?![Free Free](/uploads/1/2/5/0/125059601/216140243.jpg)

Here's a workaround for installing the 64-bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 redistributable on a system with a 32-bit MS Office version installed:
- Check the 64-bit registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice14.0CommonFilesPaths' before installing the 64-bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 redistributable.
- If it does not contain the 'mso.dll' registry value, then you will need to rename or delete the value after installing the 64-bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 redistributable on a system with a 32-bit version of MS Office installed.
- Use the '/passive' command line parameter to install the redistributable, e.g. 'C:directory pathAccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe' /passive
- Delete or rename the 'mso.dll' registry value, which contains the path to the 64-bit version of MSO.DLL (and should not be used by 32-bit MS Office versions).
Now you can start a 32-bit MS Office application without the 're-configuring' issue.Note that the 'mso.dll' registry value will already be present if a 64-bit version of MS Office is installed. In this case the value should not be deleted or renamed.
Also if you do not want to use the '/passive' command line parameter you can edit the AceRedist.msi file to remove the MS Office architecture check:
- download and install Microsoft Orca:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa370557(v=vs.85).aspx
- unzip the AccessDatabaseEngine.exe or AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe file
- open the AceRedist.msi file in Orca
- search for two table rows containing the 'CheckOfficeArchitecture' action and drop these rows
- save the updated AceRedist.msi file
You can now use this file to install the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 redistributable on a system where a 'conflicting' version of MS Office is installed (e.g. 64-bit version on system with 32-bit MS Office version)Make sure that you rename the 'mso.dll' registry value as explained above (if needed).

I hate to answer my own questions, but I did finally find a solution that actually works (using socket communication between services may fix the problem, but it creates even more problems). Since our database is legacy, it merely required
Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0
in the connection string. It turns out that this was also included in Office 2007 (and MSDE 2007), where there is only a 32-bit version available. So, instead of installing MSDE 2010 32-bit, we install MSDE 2007, and it works just fine. Other applications can then install 64-bit MSDE 2010 (or 64-bit Office 2010), and it does not conflict with our application.Microsoft Access 64 Bit Download
Thus far, it appears this is an acceptable solution for all Windows OS environments.

I had a more specifc error message that stated to remove 'Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component'
I fixed it by following the steps in https://www.tecklyfe.com/fix-for-microsoft-office-setup-error-please-uninstall-all-32-bit-office-programs-office-15-click-to-run-extensibility-component/
- Go to Start > Run (or Winkey + R)
- Type “installer” (that opens the %windir%installer folder), make sure all files are visible in Windows (Folder Settings)
- Add the column “Subject” (and make it at least 400 pixels wide) – Right click on the column headers, click More, then find Subject
- Sort on the Subject column and scroll down until you locate the name mentioned in your error screen (“Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component”)
- Right click the MSI and choose uninstall

Install the 2007 version, it seems that if you install the version opposite to the version of Office you are using you can make it work.

A similar approach to @Peter Coppins answer. This, I think, is a bit easier and doesn't require the use of the Orca utility:
- Check the 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice14.0CommonFilesPaths' registry key and make sure the value 'mso.dll' is NOT present. If it is present, then Office 64-bit seems to be installed and you should not need this workaround.
- Download the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable.
- From the command line, run: AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe /passive
(Note: this installer silently crashed or failed for me, so I unzipped the components and ran: AceRedist.msi /passive and that installed fine. Maybe a Windows 10 thing.)
- Delete or rename the 'mso.dll' value in the 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice14.0CommonFilesPaths' key.

If both versions of Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 can't coexists, then your only solution is to complain to Microsoft, regarding loading 64 bits versions of this in your 32 bits app is impossible directly, what you can do is a service that runs in 64 bits that comunicates with another 32 bits service or your application via pipes or networks sockets, but it may require a significant effort.
