    As Praful_Potphode mentioned, you can roll back to previous version till the time the issue is fixed. This is the command which you can run in your command prompt to roll back to the old version.

    Please note you might need system admin permissions in order to run this command 

    "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ClickToRun\OfficeC2RClient.exe" /update user updatetoversion=16.0.19426.20170

Hi sjm334 ,

this is a known issue introduced by the December 9, 2025 Office/Access update (Build 19426.20186, KB5072033). After this patch, ODBC connections to Access databases began failing with the error HY000 [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation is not supported for this type of object. Microsoft has acknowledged the regression, and the current guidance is to either roll back/uninstall the December update or wait for the fix in a subsequent Office patch

Please give kudos or mark it as solution once confirmed.

 

Thanks and Regards,
