Access 2013: Disabled Mode - ms-access-2013

I am having a great deal of difficulty identifying the source a problem I am having with "disabled mode" in MS Access 2013. I have read all of the support literature for 2007, 2010, and 2013 pertaining, and none of it is productive in solving the issue.
When I go to perform any sort of modification query in one of my database files I get the "The action or event has been blocked by Disabled Mode" message at the bottom bar. There is no message bar that comes up and asks me if I want to enable the content, despite this option being checked in the trust center. I have also tried going into the File>info backstage view, however, there is no "enable" button here either as reported in the 2013 help document.
Possibly the most telling characteristic of this problem is that it is not manifested in the original database of which the current database is an exact copy. I'm not sure what to make of this though.

The Message Bar
The Message Bar appears just under the Ribbon, and is part of the Microsoft Office Fluent User Interface. If the Message Bar is not visible, you must first show the message bar.

Step 2: Enable the Message Bar
If the Message Bar check box is enabled, you can skip this step.

when I click windows icon left bottom and type somethings related with a deleted mail, it appears in there..(when I try to open it it propt a msg that it is deleted and ask me to remove shortcut too.)
So I want to delete all these fiels completely and not able to see anything about them it musnt be able to search by somehow..
I dont want anything exist about that files in pc
Edited:
I click and view properties of that file appears on windows start bar it located in
"C:/Users/10023213"
so I would think to delete this directory but there is also "AppData" file in it which used by other stuff.. I couldnt figure it out how to remove things about only e mails once for all
Close Outlook.
Go into Control Panel, and in the search box at the top choose Mail (or Mail (32-bit)).
Click the Data Files... button, highlight your name in the list, and then click the Open File Location button, which will open Windows Explorer. Leave Explorer open, but close the Data Files dialog.
Click the Show Profiles... button, where you should see Outlook or your profile name. Select it and click Remove.
Close the Mail control panel dialog. Go back to the Explorer window you left open before, and delete the youremail#yourmailhost.ost file, which is all of your email content (inbox, sent, etc.). You may want to delete all of the other files and folders in this folder, as they're all of your Outlook related info (address book, etc.).

How to remove Outlook add-in load times from the registry?

According to the following article
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj228679.aspx#ol15WhatsNew_AddinDisabling
Outlook uses the median time of 5 last runs and compares it to 1 millisecond (for add-in startup). This means that if I optimize my add-in and re-install it, I should run Outlook at least 4 more times to calculate the correct value of add-in startup.
Does anybody know where this value is stored in Outlook (I guess registry)?
I tried to remove my add-in's value from the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\AddInLoadTimes
but it doesn't help, it still remembers it.
Alex,
Is your add-in listed in the Disabled Items list in Outlook?
If so, you need to remove the add-in from the Disabled Items list first. To re-enable an add-in:
In the application, click the File tab.
Click the ApplicationName Options button.
In the categories pane, click Add-ins.
In the details pane, verify that the add-in appears in the Disabled Application Add-ins list.
The Name column specifies the name of the assembly, and the Location column specifies the full path of the application manifest.
In the Manage box, click Disabled Items, and then click Go.
Select the add-in and click Enable.
Click Close.

How to revoke given permission in Chrome and Firefox?

One of the new APIs made available to developers is Geolocation API. As it's been defined in Specification, any browser should take the express permission of the user when revealing his/her geographic position to the surfed website. However, it's also been said that user can revoke that given permission at any time. I searched almost everywhere in Chrome and Firefox and I didn't find any place to revoke given permissions. Does anyone know how should I do that? (This is also the case in Contacts API)
chrome://settings/content has a section that allows you to revoke location permissions.
For Firefox: Right-click the page, "View Page Info", there go to the "Permissions" tab. The entry you are interested in is "Share Location".
Edit (2016-05-12): In current Firefox versions you can also click the info icon next to the location bar. This will show you all the special permissions you've granted the current page and will allow changing them.
This approach works in Chrome as well, there you click the document icon next to the site name. Difference is that Chrome will show you a list of all permissions, not just the ones you've granted already.
In Android Chromium (default Android browser; usually called "Browser" or "Internet") you must go to Settings > Privacy > Remove private date, check Location access and click OK.
In Android Chrome open Menu (HW button or top-right button) and go to Settings > Advanced > Content settings > Website settings and uncheck Location access under each website you want to reset the settings.
For Android Firefox go to the page with location access and long press the URL bar (it have to be highlighted while you press it). In popup menu choose Edit site settings, check the Share location and click Clear.
And in Android Opera you must delete all web data (Menu > Settings > Clear Browsing data > Clear Cookies and Data).
In Chrome you can just click the document that is to the left of the URL in the address bar and change all your different privacy settings, including geo tag, from there.
In Chrome, the most straight-forward way to manage location settings for a site is to:
Enter the site
Click the crosshair symbol (position indicator, ⌖) that is second on the right:
In Chrome, on the address bar there will be a padlock or a info button. Click on it and it will open a popup with option of drop down next to Location. If location service is already given permission then Block option will be available to revoke it.

How can I clear the cache in an Outlook client programmatically?

I am executing the following routine often in order to clear the local cache of many Outlook clients (Outlook 2003) in order to fix corrupted Forms stored on the users local drive.
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Other tab.
Click Advanced Options.
In the Advanced Options box, click Custom Forms.
In the Custom Forms box, click Manage Forms.
In the Forms Manager box, click Clear Cache.
Is there a way I can program this to occur on the local client?
I am looking for a solution that could be included in Outlooks VBScript in order to include it in yet another 'Organizational Forms Library' Forms client side validation code.

Open Dialog preserving settings

How does one preserve the settings in the Open Dialog box? For example, I would the Open Dialog to remember that I chose the Details view and sorted by date modified.
Microsoft didn't see fit to give us any documented way of doing this, but some people have figured out bits of the puzzle. This link shows how to set the view, but not how to get the current setting:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc164009.aspx
I'm not quite sure about this about isn't it an OS setting. If the user choose their Folder Preferences such as then Windows will remember or not. In this case from accessibility and usability point of view this is User's preferences.
You could inherit from the dialog's class and then see what can be overriden to do the persistence of its state.
Simple non-technical solution.
This worked for me (WinXP SP3) in some cases but not all. Since you don't have the option of changing things in a common Open dialog, you can try to do it in Windows Explorer.
Open Windows Eplorer. If you want to change the sort order, go to the details view and click on the column to sort, normally Name, but you may want to sort by Date. Now change
the view back to whatever you want. Now select "Tools" then "Folder Options". On the General tab, for "Tasks" select "Use Windows classic folders," for "Browse folders" select "Open each folder in same window." Now click the "View" tab. Scroll down and check the box for "Remember each folders view settings." If it's already checked, uncheck it then check it again. Click the "Apply" Button at the botton of the window. Click the "Apply to All Folders" button near the top. These settings may show up in your Open dialog. Having done this you can now change the settings in Windows Explorer or any other Folder window that allows you to change them and that Folder window should remember them. This fixed the Open dialog in my qraphics editor but not in my video editor.
