I found the solutions, rename the .lpkx to .7z

extract the file , that contains file geodatabase inside .7z,

and use the feature class inside file geodatabase in arcgis dekstop 10.x

Larry, thanks for reply / suggestions,

I've just try to export data which created inside in ArcGIS Pro to others apps. since no options for export selected layer in context menu.

Editing data methods different than ArcGIS desktop 10.2/10.3, i things i have to wait until commercial version available also..

The ideal conditions there are options for to produce also normal export .lpk beside .lpkx

Regards - Tommy

tommy,

I guess, Pro team may help to anwser.

In my understading, however, the workscopes for ArcGIS Pro are fully different from desktop ArcGIS. Certainly, we are still learning and also trying to understand the purposes why ESRI makes huge efforts for Pro.

To me,  architectures and audiences between Pro and ArcGIS desktop are also targeting differently, at least, so far. So, not surprised if we couldn't seamlessly & interactive use some things among two products.
