Upgraded from SP 2013 to SP 2016 on Monday. We’ve used Nintex Workflow since SP2010 starting in 2012, jsyk. The upgrade went smooth, no workflow errors, etc. The one oddity is intermittent missing progress links under the workflow column. This is universal across all 8 site collections, one of which has several InfoPath form libraries. Every form library’s workflow list is doing it. Any ideas? I have NOT run a final psconfig because the forms and workflows and reporting are running well, and we needed to get the system back to the users. Here’s what we are seeing. BTW, this is an internal instance, not public facing:

Auto Cleanup Job was on, wiped all history older than 60 days after the upgrade. Microsoft does a lot of great things things, but there are also a few COMPLETELY STUPID decisions made along the way. That job should be off by default, then we can turn it on when needed. Nintex 2016 also has a maintenance job that apparently does similar things. My company needs all data for audit reasons, so time to pull up the sleeves and redo the upgrade. Hopefully this post saves someone else from losing history data.
