At The University of Manchester we plan to deploy ArcGIS Pro 2.2.4 this semester on computer clusters across the campus using a concurrent license. Currently extensions have to be individually switched on. Ideally activating ArcGIS Pro extensions silently which would automatically check the checkboxes against the extensions would be very useful. This then mean we are not expecting our students to individually do this in a computer cluster environment. The Esri Extensions would be activated automatically so that Esri Extensions is set to ‘Yes’ when the software opens and connects to the license server. This would provide a much more smoother user experience for our students as they would not have to check manually the check boxes within the ‘Configure your licensing options’ button.

This might be a more elegant solution: https://community.esri.com/ideas/2635

It would be great if there was the possibility, within the Pro.settingsConfig file see https://pro.arcgis.com/de/pro-app/latest/get-started/application-setting-management.htm
you could specify this setting.
