ArcMap or ArcGIS10.7.1. Whenever I startup either application, I find duplicate entries in the ARCTOOLBOX in addition to entries that appear to be outdated (i.e., pointing to tools that are not present on the computer). Is there a way to fix this issue other than reinstalling the software from scratch?
I already tried renaming the template files for the applications so the templates and ArcToolBox.dat file so those files would refresh automatically. This did not resolve the issue.
I also tried to "remove" the extraneous tools from the ARCTOOLBOX and "save to default file". It does save the changes to the default file, however, I have to manually load the default file every time I work in the applications.
I attached a screenshot of a portion of the corrupted ARCTOOLBOX. See the duplicates. Also, the "Defense Mapping Tool" has no corresponding tool anywhere on the computer that I could find. There are four entries that have no corresponding tool anywhere on the computer and all of the other tools have duplicate entries. Thanks for your consideration.
