Hi All,
I have a series of layer files (.lyrx) which have stopped working in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 with the error:
ERROR 000966: The input layer is not valid
Is there any way I can upgrade them without access to the original project I used to create them. I need the thematic setup (standard class breaks, standard colours) and I don't want to spend hours setting them all up again.
a layer package would have been more useful since it packages the data as well.
Save a layer file—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation
If you have access to the original data you might be able to recover the references.
Alternately if you need references to the properties of the *.lyrx then you have to use the mapping module
