Microsoft Access Database engine 2010 installation notes.

Maxene reporter default database is MaxeneReporter.accdb  and requires the 32-bit version of Microsoft Access Database engine 2010.   Only use the 2010 version.  Later versions won't work.

You can download it here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=13255

Or use this attachment. AccessDatabaseEngine2010_x32.exe

After downloading the engine, you probably won't be able to install it just by clicking on the  .exe file like normal driver downloads.  This article explains why.

Open a dos command prompt as administrator.  

Navigate to the folder where you have the AccessDatabaseEngine_2010_x32.exe file 

Type the name of the file followed by /quiet:   AccessDatabaseEngine2010_x32.exe  /quiet 

You won't see anything displayed in the dos window.   You can verify it worked by going to conrol panel/programs and features and finding Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 in the list of installed programs.
