Is it possible to install data interoperability for both Arcgis Desktop and Arcgis Pro on the same machine?

I have tried to install them both and it seems like they override eachother.

First let me start by giving the version numbers:

  • Arcgis Desktop 10.5.1 (10.5.7333)
  • Arcgis Data Interoperability 10.5.1 for Desktop (10.5.7333)
  • Arcgis Pro 2.1 (2.1.10257)
  • Data Interoperability 2.1 (2.1.10256)

The following happens when installing Data Interoperability:

First InstallSecond installResult
Data interop for desktopData interop for ProData interop doesn't work for desktop
Data interop for ProData interop for desktopData interop doesn't work for pro

The same will happen when I repair the install, so If i repair data interop for Pro, data interop for desktop stops working and vice versa. In data interop for desktop i get the following script error:

After clicking yes the tool stays empty:

In Arcgis Pro the tool is not empty but it's impossible to browse for the dataset.

Can anyone help me of has anyone an idea how i can fix this?

ArcGIS pro needs the 64 bit version

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your help but I have already installed the 64-bit version which I downloaded from my.esri.com

Jeroen, if you have installed it already, has your administrator enabled the extension for you?

Yes he has. I can run the extension.

The problem is that I can't get the tool to work in both ArcGis Desktop and ArcGis Pro.

They both have theire sperate install but somehow the installations of both versions corrupt each other.

Hi, yes you can install both but we had an install-order collision requiring a repair install of 10.5.x DI extension if Pro DI was also present.

Provided your issue with Pro isn't that you don't have licensing try a repair install of DI 10.5.1.  The collision was fixed at 10.6.

Hi Bruce,

Thank you for your help, I tried repairing the 10.5.1 version but after that I could not browse for datasets in DI for pro.

I will try again and see if it works. I'll keep you updated.

Jeroen you may need to upgrade to 10.6.
