    Microsoft Access 2016 provides a rich platform for developing database management solutions with easy-to-use customization tools. If no end-user customization is required (including report modifications), you can choose to distribute those Access 2016 solutions so that they run without requiring a full installation of Access 2016. To do so, you must package and distribute your application with the Access 2016 Runtime.

    The Access 2016 Runtime is similar to previous runtimes in that all design-related UI is either removed or disabled.

    You do not need to buy any special product in order to redistribute the Access 2016 Runtime. You can freely redistribute it or point users to this download.

    Web based Apps for SharePoint that are built with Access 2016 do not require a runtime - only a supported web browser is required.

  • Supported Operating Systems

    Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012
