Access - Link to Outlook Contacts

Question

in Access I had a linked table sourcing from Outlook contacts, which I then used for further data elaboration.
Since some weeks I get "unable to find field" error.
I then tried to:

create a new linked table from scratch but I get error An error occurred trying to link to file 'Contacts'. The link was not created
create a new imported (not linked) table but I get error The Microsoft Access database engine could not find the Object ". Make sure the Object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly. If " is not a local Object check your network connection or contact the server administrator.

Has something been changed from Outlook side?
What could be the reason for these errors?

From the perspective of Outlook client, if you are using Exchange account,it is suggested to turn off your cache mode and see if the issue has any difference. Besides, I also found some other information related to Import or link to contacts from an Outlook address book, please check https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/import-or-link-to-contacts-from-an-outlook-address-book-e2ff9669-5b95-483e-be8d-83590c2085a3
