We have a SharePoint site that archives communications from our HR department to various groups of people, but over the past 2 years they’ve been manually managing access requests instead of using permission groups. Now they have over 7000 access requests and when anyone goes to the pending request page, they only see the following error:

The button that appears in their emails is also throwing an error, so that isn’t an option.

Is there a way to access the full list without using the pendingreq.aspx page? I tried navigating to /Access%20Requests/Forms/AllItems.aspx but only received a 404. If I can access the full list, what would happen if we deleted the old approved requests? Would that remove the access for those users?
