            That is a bit different from your original question. You need to install the ACE driver for oledb. See Download Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable from Official Microsoft Download Center[^].

                Yes it will, you just need to click your mouse to the left of the item you want to download. If it still does not work, then you need to complain to Microsoft.

                    To be fair, I tried that link myself, and it failed for me, presumably in the same way as for the OP. (I was wondering how it could be so hard.) Turns out there is a hidden check box or button just to the left of the files.

                      I just tried it. It didn't seem to work for me either. It is a really weird screen. If you click just to the left of the two files listed a 'box' will appear. It is just white space until you click on it. The box will disappear once your mouse moves away. However once selected the text box to the right will say that you have selected a file (or two) and the 'Next' button at the bottom of the screen will be highlighted.

                        Yes it took me a while to figure out the how to do it. But it is Microsoft of course.

                          It must be your browser. The checkboxes appear and work fine for me in Firefox 54. :)

                            I tried this (and another similar Microsoft page) in both Chrome and Edge, and the checkboxes did not show up in either.

                              That's very odd. The checkboxes show up fine for me in Firefox, Chrome (v59), Chrome Canary (v61), Edge (v40.15063.0.0), IE11 (v11.413.15063.0), and Opera (v46).

                                Even odder, they now show up for me on both the pages I was trying the other day. I suspect a recent web update.

                                      AFAIK, the default download for Firefox is 32-bit, even if you're on a 64-bit OS. You have to click on the "Firefox for Other Platforms & Languages" button to get the 64-bit version.
