As you probably know, the original 5.16 update had a timing problem. Later a second update was at Chessbase. The size of two of the files were larger and the dates were later, after unzipping. The timing problem was solved. What else, I don't know. I wonder why Chessbase said nothing about this. I just figured they must of fixed it so I downloaded it later and discovered the changes. I guess it depends on when you downloaded the 5.16 update. You probably already know this.
