Please try the following to resolve the issue:
1. Boot Excel 2016
2. Open [Excel Options] dialog. ([File]-[Options])
3. Select [Advanced] tab, turn on [Cut, copy and sort inserted objects with their parent cells] option. (In [Cut, copy and paste] section)
*This will not resize rows that are currently set to 409.5 but I would like to know if this keeps rows from doing this in the future.

I know this is going to be almost impossible to believe but on the 12th of January I made a brand new copy of the entire workbook by copying the worksheets one at a time and putting them in a new workbook. I saved it on an external hard drive I have and it HAS NOT changed. I know it's only 3 days but the other one did change again. I just made a few additions to it, the one on the hard drive, and will watch it and report back. There still has to be a reason excel is changing it on the pc though.
Thanks
