Installation Instructions ArcGIS Pro

ArcGIS Pro is installed from an installation image. You find it at the central online storage in the folder:

  • ArcGIS\Pro\<Version>\
The main installation files are in an ISO archive (ArcGIS_Pro_<Vv>_<Number>.iso).
You may also find update patch files (ArcGIS_Pro_<Vvv>_<Number>.msp) it is sufficient that you install only the file with the greatest version number. If you would like to run ArcGIS in German, a German language pack (ArcGISProLP_<Vv>_de_<Number>.exe) may also be available.

You can download the ISO archive to your local hard drive and mount it directly with Windows 10. Otherwise, you can extract the files with the application 7-Zip. ArcGIS Pro is broken up into several components, which are installed by running separate executable files. Their names follow the scheme shown below:

  • <NameOfComponent>_<Version>_<Number>.exe

The file ArcGISPro_21_161585.exe for example, installs the ArcGIS Pro application itself in the version 2.1. Please have a look in the file quickstart.htm for further information.

By default, the texts of the help system are downloaded from the internet. You can install these help texts locally with help of ArcGISProHelp_<...>.exe

After installation, you have to authorise ArcGIS Pro. You are provided with so called Named User Licenses. That is, you have your own personal license, which you can use wherever you want and on any computer. Start ArcGIS Pro. At the welcome Screen, go for Your ArcGIS organization's URL:
