After installing ArcGIS Pro 3.5, updating to 3.5.2, and adding deep learning essentials (all without errors), I attempted to clone the<SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN><SPAN>arcgispro-py3</SPAN><SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN>environment. However, I received an<SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN><SPAN>InvalidArchiveError</SPAN><SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN>along with messages about a missing file.</P><P>Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Could it be a corrupted installation or a permissions issue? Thanks for your help!</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Muhammad_Elbagoury_0-1751195151199.png" style="width: 768px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/135332i8B916F3D7EF0A0D5/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="Muhammad_Elbagoury_0-1751195151199.png" alt="Muhammad_Elbagoury_0-1751195151199.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Sun, 29 Jun 2025 11:06:18 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/issue-cloning-arcgis-pro-3-5-2-python-environment/m-p/1628104#M96931 Muhammad_Elbagoury 2025-06-29T11:06:18Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/issue-cloning-arcgis-pro-3-5-2-python-environment/m-p/1628106#M96932 <P>there is a caution on the installation on their page regarding cloned environments</P><P><A href="https://github.com/Esri/deep-learning-frameworks" target="_blank">Esri/deep-learning-frameworks: Installation support for Deep Learning Frameworks for the ArcGIS System</A></P> Sun, 29 Jun 2025 12:55:00 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/issue-cloning-arcgis-pro-3-5-2-python-environment/m-p/1628106#M96932 DanPatterson 2025-06-29T12:55:00Z
