I'm using SQL Server 2016 and SQL Server Management Studio updated to v17.4. I want to use Always Encrypted to encrypt a column. I tried to run the Always Encrypted wizard as illustrated in a number of places. I right click the database node, choose Tasks and there's supposed to be an option Encrypt Columns, but there isn't.

In the Security folder of the database in Management Studio, there's an option of Always Encrypted Keys, but I want to use the wizard.

How can I get the Encrypt Columns option to be displayed and display the wizard?

I had to download Sql Server 2016 SP1 and that solved the problem. I got the direction from a different question, SQL2016 Not able to create Column Master Key, in seth flowers answer.
