Management Studio release 16.5.2 Has A Bug Preventing Showing List of Tables

The 16.5.2 release of SQL Server Management Studio (which reports as 13.0.16105.4 in the About screen) has a bug where you cannot display a list of tables in databases that contain sparse columns. You get a “Subquery returned more than 1 value.” error as shown below when you try to expand the Tables node.

 

This has been reported here and here.

The fix is to roll back to a previous version.
