Access 2007 runtime

Hi,
on a 64bits win8 I'm installing a setup. The program fails due to the known 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' error, provider is not registered.
Then I added the Access 2007 runtime (and tested it with 2010 too) as a prerequisite. It was installing, but still I get the provider is not registered error later on in my program.
The Access 2007 runtime should install the OLEDB provider, not?

Re: Access 2007 runtime

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.

I'm not sure why you encountered this behavior.

It seems this issue is caused by running 64-bit windows and there are no MS Access drivers that run 64-bit. You can try to install 2007 Office System Driver:Connectivity Components and see if that helped.

A similar behavior is debated on Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine thread.

Best regards,
Dan
