I purchased Microsoft 365 personal because my son needed to use Microsoft Access for one of his classes, but after the Microsoft 365 apps were installed, Microsoft Access was not among them. How do I get Microsoft Access?

Microsoft 365 and Office | Access | For home | Windows

    Microsoft Access is a desktop only application. It will be available under Windows, on your desktop.

    Because you purchased M365 Personal, Access should be available.

    Press the Windows Start button and enter "Access" in the search box. Does it not appear when you search that way?

    Microsoft 365 was installed and all apps except Microsoft Access was installed on the desktop under Windows.
