No, never used \definefont; the behavior of \definefontfamily must have changed. (I used this font *only* in one very specific case -in a logo- in one project - September-December 2015).

In this case, "standard" might be a better name (but I know that it is not going to change).

Hello,
Previously, in order to make punctual use of a true-type font in a title for
example, I did the following:
\definefontfamily [myfont] [serif] [myfont]
where myfont.ttf is located in the current project directory, and selecting the
font was simply
{\switchtobodyfont[myfont]My Font!}
Maybe you loaded the used the font before with \definefont which put a
entry in the database but normally \definefontfamily doesn’t use fonts
from a local directory.

You can’t.
Or, the other way round, how must I \definehighlight[emph][style=italic] so
that it works in all sizes?
-
\setupbodyfont[rm,12pt]
\definefont[TitleFont][SansBold*default sa 3]
\setuphead[chapter][style=\TitleFont,page=no]
\setuphead
[chapter]

*default activates the default set of OpenType features.
sa 3 is the font size factor.
