I am trying to project a feature class in ArcMap using a project tool and I have hundreds of attachments files included in this feature class, When I project the data the new feature class does not include the attachments files, In workspace > environment > geodatabase I checked box to 'maintain attachments’, Is there a way to transfer or retain the old attachment data from the old feature class into the new feature class? Thanks- I am using ArcMap 10.8

ArcMap does not support attachments with the Project tool. You can see the tools that maintain attachments here:

https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/tools/environments/maintain-attachments.htm

ArcGIS Pro does support maintaining attachments with the Project tool:

You can do this workaround in ArcMap:

I'd recommend just making the move to ArcGIS Pro
