Missing table(s) when upgrading from BC 16.5 to 25.15

Crossposting from mibuso.

I am attempting to upgrade an on-premise instance of Business Central 16.5 to 25.15. However, when attempting to synchronize System Application, the following error occurs:

Table 4152 Temp Media :: The table 'Temp Media' cannot be located. Removing tables is not allowed unless they are temporary or are being moved by migration to another app.

The table in question is present in v16.5 and later minor versions, but missing in the later version of System Application, but the official guide for upgrading on-premise Business Central makes no mention of adjusting for removed tables. This isn't listed in the known issues and the compatibility matrix for upgrades also states that I should be able to upgrade to any minor version of v25.
I've previously managed to upgrade other databases from v14 to v25 without issues, and using ForceSync during the upgrade process usually results in missing data, so I should be able to do this using the "Add" sync mode alone. This error even occurs when attempting to upgrade the demo database from the installation DVD, so it's unrelated to any customizations of the database. Why am I encountering the error despite following the official guide, and how can I resolve it?
