How do I unlock an Access Database?

To unlock an Access database through a dedicated server, you can follow these steps:

  1. Access the dedicated server using Remote Desktop or any other remote connection tool.
  2. Locate the folder where the Access database is stored.
  3. Right-click on the database file and select "Properties."
  4. Uncheck the "Read-only" option if it's selected and click "Apply."
  5. If the database is password-protected, open Microsoft Access and enter the password to unlock it.
  6. If the database is in use by another user, you may need to wait for the user to finish their work or ask them to close the database.
  7. If the issue persists, you can try restarting the server or killing the process that is holding the lock on the database file.
By following these steps, you should be able to unlock an Access database through a dedicated server.
 
There are Access database password crackers out there, but none I wouldn't trust to use as there is no guarantee the database won't be corrupted in some manner.
