I have implemented and been using an Access 2007 encrypted database for a couple of years now and over the last few days have had these problems:-

The database does not compact when the last user logs off.

As I try to close the database it sometimes asks for the password

In the database tools ribbon it says "Encrypt with password" when it should be offering me to Decrypt if I login exclusive.

If I do login as exclusive to compact the database, once I have logged in using the correct password I am unable to backup the database because when it asks again for password and verify, it tells me that it is incorrect.

I can go back and find a "clean" copy and delete/reload tables etc, but does anybody know what has caused this problem and if there us a fix.
 
Try if you able to import all into a new created database.
 
generally, I would avoid using automatic compact methods, though.

better to do it manually, I think.
