Actually, don't believe the attribute table has all COGO details you'd need to recreate arc's from the cord's. The vertex representing the cords are recorded into the feature class. The old COGO data from survey are your annotation in the attributes table. ... View more

Simply removing from the Windows registry is not enough. Uninstalling the program is what removes its linkages often by GUID  from the Global cache and WinSxS. The ET Spatial Techniques folks provide their ET Uninstaller utility.  Use that, and then do a repair install 10.4, see if it clears things up. ... View more

That works, but requires a launch and a failure to obtain license, and launch again.  The user at the client has to manually do that. What is needed is fallback.  For that you need to poll the license pool--determine what is available, and then present user the choice of license to check out--proceed or not. Put onus on the user to select the functional level they need not higher. But, if the user needs Advanced seat or an extension and it isn't available, they need to track down who has them checked out and get them to close out and to give up the seat.  Kind of WHATLG's niche, which sits on each client desktop and polls the license pool for the information. FlexNet Publisher provides the options file to give some granularity to control of the seats, allowing reservations--but that is controlled from the license pool by the admin. It provides no feedback to the users--all they know is they receive or don't receive license for the seat type or extension they request. ... View more

Reginaldo, Great, and for any residual issues, please see Curtis Price's  Resetting your ArcGIS application profile suspect your ArcGIS user profile is in the mix as well. Stuart ... View more

The seat type is controlled from each client--the server just tracks what it has available. It can reserve and limit use of the mix of seats as needed using the options file but can not alter what the clients ask for. You could script something to run on the clients to use the lmutil.exe lmstat call to test the license pool for available seat type (parse the return to count how many of the Advanced seats are in use), and then alter the clients identity -- changing the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ESRI\License10.4  SOFTWARE_CLASS attribute value for the client from Professional to Editor or back as appropriate. ...

Reginaldo Paderon​ I find ArcGIS upgrades are kind of a crap shoot.  Bigger issue than a clean ArcGIS uninstall are what other extensions/programs from during your 10.2 use period were left behind with now broken hooks to ArcGIS. If you are still getting the R6034 runtime error on launch of ArcGIS ArcMap or ArcCatalog it is likely a leftover from an earlier extension. It could be sitting on the %PATH% ahead of ArcGIS You can tease out details of the Microsoft C Runtime DLLs running when ArcCatalog or ArcMap is active using the MS SysInternals-- Process Explorer​​ --utility. Load it and activate the Lower pane.  Then launch ArcGIS (catalog or map) and select that process. The associated DLLs will show in the lower pane. You'll be interested in the msvc[r|p] that are listed. The errant version of the C Runtime msvcr[90|100|120].dll that is causing the R6034 error should show a path that is out of place (e.g. not in C:\Windows\SysWOW64, or C:\Program files (x86)\Esri) You'll need to figure out what old junk is affecting the new ArcGIS 10.4 install and either rename it, or uninstall it, or adjust the %PATH% to get it later than the system calls that ArcGIS needs to launch. That should get you going without having to reload the OS--but sometimes there is no substitute from a backup and a fresh OS install. Maybe time to start thinking about Windows 8.1 or 10. Stuart ...

Thomas Bath​ Sorry, that should have taken care of things for you.  There have been problems in the past with the registration servers not completing activation of Authorization codes--you might try to activate it again. Otherwise, we'll assume you have a valid and unused Authorization code from your Tutorial 2, was the text ordered directly from Esri? Suspect you are entitled to installation support from Esri technical support--both having purchased the Tutorial and if your school is an education program participant.  Either way--go ahead and open a ticket with Esri   http://support.esri.com/en/webform​  -- they'll be able to confirm the Authorization code is unused and valid, and can assist with getting it activated correctly so you can use it to authorize your seat of 10.2 What I am not sure of is if the 180 license Authorization code is for ArcGIS Standard (ArcEditor) or for ArcGIS Advanced (ArcInfo) functional level.  You will have to select the correct single-use radio button on the ArcGIS Administrator -> Desktop panel. Esri support, or an Esri Press CSR will be able to advise you which. Good luck, and let us know how you make out. Stuart P.S. Please use the GeoNet forums ( https://geonet.esri.com ) for any responses rather than email.  Email works, sort of, but you have no control over your post to the thread and it is too easy to not trim message. ...

Sure, but let's see if that gets Thomas sorted out first. ... View more

Thomas Bath​ The expired authorization simply needs to be deleted from cache on your notebook PC. With Administrator privileges, delete (or rename if uncomfortable) the ArcGIS_xxxxxxxx_tsf.data and the tsf.data_backup.001 from the FlexNet Pbulisher trusted storage located at:  C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet As with your Tutorial 1 you must activate the Authorization number against your individual Esri global account. You do that from here:  http://esripress.esri.com/display/dsp_ArcGIS10Eval.cfm  With the authorization code activated, you can then run the ArcGIS Administrator -> Desktop:  "Authorize now..." wizard. Let us know if you are still stuck.
