Does MarcEdit now slip in some 64-bit Access 2016 component when it 
installs? Like possibly this? 
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54920

I was baffled yesterday when Access (Office 365, presumably 32-bit) was 
unable to start with a strange error message about not being able to 
access the Windows registry, could not start in safe mode or repair 
itself either, while other Office applications still functioned and I 
had done nothing recently to change Office that I could think of. After 
a song and dance of both a 32-bit and 64-bit installer refusing to do 
anything because they each saw components with the opposite bits already 
installed, I remembered I had recently installed MarcEdit 7.5 and 
wondered if that was actually the culprit, a result of whatever change 
meant no longer having to restart it in 32-bit mode to run the OCLC db 
reader plugin.

In the end I removed the all 32-bit Office and started over with just 
64-bit Office 365 and nothing else, and they seem to be playing OK now. 
But if I've got the right idea about what happened, "Installing MarcEdit 
will break an existing working install of 32-bit Access" isn't so great.
