This article describes update KB3191870 for Microsoft Project 2016, which was released on May 2, 2017. This update has a prerequisite. Be aware that the update on the Microsoft Download Center applies to the Microsoft Installer (.msi)-based edition of Office 2016. It doesn't apply to the Office 2016 Click-to-Run editions, such as Microsoft Office 365 Home. (How to determine?)

Improvements and fixes

This update fixes the following issues:

  • After you change the Physical % Complete value on a subtask, the value is not calculated as expected on the related summary task.

  • When you open a project from a SharePoint list, Project 2016 may crash as the synchronization process begins.

  • When you print review project data, you may find the text that is wrapping in a cell appears differently than it does in the view. For example, text may be missing or the location where the text breaks from one line to the next is different.

  • If a cost and a work resource are assigned to the same task, you may not be able to change the task's status manager.
