Access freezes when I copy a record
Windows 11 Office 365 Access Suddenly, when I copied a record in the database Access froze as if it didn't have enough memory. I tried compact and repair, repairing Office, uninstalling and reins...
- I also did that and saw the problem remained
I have same problems... I upgraded my wife's laptop running WIN10 to new laptop with WIN11.
the database runs perfect on W10 but now has this freezing problem on W11. tried all the fixes you tried but to no avail. thanks
This has been happening for 6 months, you would think that a patch of Win11 or Access would address the issue at some point

The Windows team does have a fix for this issue, but it has not been delivered to a public release yet. Have you tried turning all the options mentioned here: Access gets slow or freezes on Win11 when you copy records (accessforever.org) ?
I'd specifically suggest turning off Use suggested actions on your PC - Microsoft Support, as potentially the least intrusive workaround.

Running as administrator did not work on my computer, but when I followed PackerGuy suggestion "Go to the settings > clipboard and turn off "Suggested Actions" it worked for me and another coworker.
Thanks PackerGuy

Got it Shane... how weird... but the clipboard suggestion toggle worked... this has been an issue for 14 months, thanks
