- Yes, here also the update available (Europe). Tested en fix the problem. Trusted Location not necessary any more. But I highly recommend it. Otherwise you will have problem starting from April.

Hi,
Meanwhile, I've seen more reports that putting the database in a Trusted Folder would help. So, anyone who has problems with build 16.0.14827.20158 could try this and please report if it helped for you too. That way we can determine how generally applicable this workaround is, as various errors/problems caused by this build have been reported.
BTW If you only have the Runtime and/or don't want to write reg scripts etc. you can also use the small tool AddPath2016.exe from Gunter Avenius to define a Trusted Folder.
