Access 2016 – Default Database Folder

[loureed4]

Hello,

We have the setting “Default Database Folder” (GPO) pointing to %HOMESHARE%.

When I try to create a new Database, this message error pops up:

[URL=”file://server1/path1/Database1″]\server1path1Database1[/URL] isn’t accessible. the folder may by located in an unavailable location, protected with a password, or the filename contains a / .

But I can access that path perfectly through the File Explorer.

When I set “Default Database Folder” to F: , it works flawlessly, and %HOMESHARE% points actually to F: , so, it seems to have to do maybe with that environment variable.

Thanks in advance.
