The action or event has been blocked by Disabled Mode - ms-access

I am using Microsoft Access 2007 to move and massage some data between two SQL Servers. Yesterday everything was working correctly, I was able to run queries, update data, and delete data.
Today I opened up the Access database to finish my data migration and am now receiving the following message when I try to run some update queries:
The action or event has been blocked
by Disabled Mode.
Any ideas what this is talking about?

Try and see if this works:
Click on 'External Data' tab
There should be a Security Warning that states "Certain content in the database has been disabled"
Click the 'Options' button
Select 'Enable this content' and click the OK button

I solved this with Access options.
Go to the Office Button --> Access Options --> Trust Center --> Trust Center Settings Button --> Message Bar
In the right hand pane I selected the radio button "Show the message bar in all applications when content has been blocked."
Closed Access, reopened the database and got the warning for blocked content again.

No. Go to database tools (for 2007) and click checkmark on the Message Bar. Then, after the message bar apears, click on Options, and then Enable. Hope this helps.

From access help:
Stop Disabled Mode from blocking a query
If you try to run an append query and it seems like nothing happens, check the Access status bar for the following message:
This action or event has been blocked by Disabled Mode.
To stop Disabled Mode from blocking the query, you must enable the database content. You use the Options button in the Message Bar to enable the query.
Enable the append query
In the Message Bar, click Options.
In the Microsoft Office Security Options dialog box, click Enable this content, and then click OK.
If you don't see the Message Bar, it may be hidden. You can show it, unless it has also been disabled. If the Message Bar has been disabled, you can enable it.
Show the Message Bar
If the Message Bar is already visible, you can skip this step.
On the Database Tools tab, in the Show/Hide group, select the Message Bar check box.
If the Message Bar check box is disabled, you will have to enable it.
Enable the Message Bar
If the Message Bar check box is enabled, you can skip this step.
Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Access Options.
In the left pane of the Access Options dialog box, click Trust Center.
In the right pane, under Microsoft Office Access Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings.
In the left pane of the Trust Center dialog box, click Message Bar.
In the right pane, click Show the Message Bar in all applications when content has been blocked, and then click OK.
Close and reopen the database to apply the changed setting.
Note When you enable the append query, you also enable all other database content.
For more information about Access security, see the article Help secure an Access 2007 database.

On the ribbon,Go to Database Tools
under "Show/Hide", make sure the Message bar is checked (turned on)
Then click on the gray message bar, click database options.
From there you can modify your security options. Just enable these types of content.
You should be good to go after this.

You may wish to consider self-certifying your projects:
Self-certification, digital certificate, digital signatures

Another issue is that your database may be in a "non-trusted" location. Go to the trust center settings and add your database location to the trusted locations list.

In the website login, Chrome found the password you just used in a data breach

I am getting a popup message when I'm login into my website that "Chrome found the password you just used in a data breach to secure your accounts....".
Is there a way to hide or disable this popup?
You can Disable this Alert Message in this way...
Launch the Chrome browser on your machine.
Click on the vertical 3-dots icon situated at the top right and select the
Settings menu.
Switch to the Privacy and Security tab, and click on Security.
Disable the Warn you if passwords are exposed in a data breach toggle
to stop the alert.
It's not necessarily the answer you were looking for, but I recommend actually changing your passwords! That would make the popup go away too if it sweetens the pot any.

How to avoid Chrome's automaticDownload limitations

I have a site that offers users the chance to download files by clicking a button which loads a rest request then uses file-saver to download it.
The second time a user in Chrome clicks this they get a popup blocker. The message is "This site attempted to download multiple files automatically". How does Chrome determine when to show this message? Can I do something to reset it?
The site is loaded as an iframe within microsoft teams. But I don't think that is the issue
Fire up Chrome, click the menu icon, and then click “Settings.” Alternatively, you can type chrome://settings/
Once in the Settings tab, scroll down to the bottom and click “Advanced.”
Scroll down to the Privacy and Security section and click on “Site Settings.”
Scroll down the list of settings until you see the “Automatic Downloads” option. Click on it.
By default, the feature is set to ask permission when a site tries to download files in succession. This is the recommended behavior, but if you want to block all sites from downloading multiple files automatically, toggle the switch to the Off position.

How to disable the welcome message from neo4j?

I'm using a web page to show neo4j server in a framework. I want to know how to disable the two welcome messages from opening when this page is loaded or when neo4j is logged in. the screenshot is below.
By default the initial command that runs when you open Neo4j Browser is :play start which shows the "welcome message" guide. You can configure this initial command by clicking on the settings icon and changing the setting Initial Command. If you leave this field blank then no browser guide will play on startup.
You can remove an answer pane by clicking on the "X" button on its top right hand corner.

Use VBA to hide queries and modules in MS Access and prevent user access

How do i hide all queries/Modules from left hand side of the Access objects in order to prevent user to access them.
You can make objects hidden by right clicking on object>View Properties > Attributes: Hidden = True
you can hide the navigation pane by going to File>Options>Current Database>Navigation>uncheck the 'Display Navigation Pane" box
And you can hide most of the stuff on the ribbon by File>Options>Current Database>Ribbon and Toolbar options> uncheck "Allow Full Menus"
The problem with all of this is that none of it is permanent. Any user can show the navigation pane by hitting F11 or show full menus by right clicking on the quick access toolbar and getting into the access options.
You can automatically do all of this on startup using an autoexec macro but again, a clever person can get around all of it.
You could compile your Access app into an 'MDE' or 'ACCDE' (compiled executable) file: http://www.utteraccess.com/wiki/index.php/Creating_MDE,_ADE,_and_ACCDE_Files

How to trigger "Markup Validation" in Visual Web Developer 2010

After turning on the Error List, the MS Visual Web Developer 2010 can report warning/error in the panel automatically.
However, I would like to know what I can do to trigger this validation manually rather than wait for a unpredictable period until the application starts to check.
If you go to Tools > Settings on the menu and tick Expert Settings, the menus will now have a lot more options, one of which can be found in Edit > Advanced, Validate Document which should provide what you want.
If you want to assign this a keyboard shortcut, go to Tools > Options on the menu, tick Show all Settings in the bottom left of the Options window, then navigate through the tree on the left to Environment > Keyboard. Once you've got the Keyboard Settings showing, type Edit.ValidateDocument into the "Show commands containing" textbox, change the "Use new shortcut in" drop-down to HTML Editor Design View and then click in "Press shortcut keys" and enter the shortcut key you wish to use. I suggest Shift-Alt-V as it's not assigned by default in Visual Web Developer 2010. Finally click "Assign" and then "OK"
