MS Access uses the underlying Jet Database Engine. Using Access Password, you can recover passwords for any Jet databases, not only Access databases. Note that the security model in MS Access is quite complex (although it is insecure).

There are two different password types: user passwords and database passwords. Read this article for more information on Access password types. Access Password Pro can recover both password types while Access Password Standard recovers database passwords only. Note that database passwords were introduced in Access 95. MS Access v2.0 does not support database passwords. You can find more information on password types in MS Access in this article.

User passwords are stored in a so-called system database (.mda (old Access 2.0) or .mdw (modern versions) file).
