LegacyLift runs 100% locally. No cloud upload. No data collection. Your files never leave your network — not even for a second.
LegacyLift is a lightweight, self-contained Windows desktop app.
Windows 10 version 1809 or later, or Windows 11. Both x64 architectures supported.
LegacyLift ships as a self-contained executable. No runtime installation, no dependencies, no admin rights required.
Enables full .mdb to .accdb binary conversion. Without it, LegacyLift still scans, generates fix scripts, and creates reports — but cannot perform the binary format conversion itself.
