May 7, 2019, update for Project 2016 (KB4464541)

This article describes update 4464541 for Microsoft Project 2016 that was released on May 7, 2019.

Be aware that the update in 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 (see What version of Office am I using?).

This update fixes the following issues:

• Assume that the Flag1 field on a task is changed from Yes to No before the project is saved. The field value still displays Yes when you reopen the project.
• You have selected the Japanese calendar format in the Label dropdown menu in the Gantt Chart timescale. However, the era is shown in English instead of Japanese.
• Consider the following scenario:
• You have a master project that has at least one sub project.
• You have published both the master and the sub project.
• You open the published version of the master project.
• You view the sub project from the master project.

          In this case, the sub project is the draft version of the project instead of the expected published version.
