I am able to see both layers in ArcGIS Pro 3.6.2 application.  The way I added them was in an active map view, I clicked the Add Data dropdown and selected From Path...  Then I copied and pasted the URL for the 2 links you provided in your question and both layers added just fine.  I did have to change the color schemes to an appropriate/preferred color scheme.  Do you know what release of ArcGIS Pro your client is using? ...

In a geodatabase, a relationship class can’t usually be “reconnected” the way a broken map layer source can. If the relationship class is truly missing or its participating tables/classes were renamed/moved, the standard solution is to recreate the relationship class (or revert the datasets to their original names/locations). There is there this Problem: Related Data from a Relationship Class Not Displayed in ArcGIS Pro document that may or may not assist you. ... View more

The licensing change for ArcGIS for Personal Use (Advanced to Basic) occurred June 2025 from what I've learned.  The rationale or reason I'm not seeing but as mentioned higher up in the thread, likely there was abuses/misuse of the program.  As intended, it is "for individual use to explore, learn, and apply GIS technology to your personal projects."  Perhaps some used it for profitable use cases... ...

The Clip function—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation raster function in ArcGIS Pro could also be a solid workflow to consider too.  Use the Inside/Outside parameter to screen out the surrounding AOI/box.  Place the new result in-memory layer on top of the original then set a transparency for the original layer. ...

As I understand it, the workflow as described in your question is not possible BUT you can export the labels out to an annotation feature class first.  Once the annotation feature class is created, it will be added to the Map View in ArcGIS Pro.  Then select the annotation feature and the associated vector layer and GROUP them together.  Export the Map View out to a PDF.  In Adobe Reader, you can turn off/on the group layer for the geometry and annotation then.  (BTW, I tested this using a file geodatabase and not a shapefile.  Shapefiles are good and all but a legacy data format.) ...

Confirmed as a BUG in ArcGIS Pro 3.6.2 with Esri Support Services.  I do not have a BUG number as of yet but will share it when I know.  A workaround is to uninstall 3.6.2 in favor of 3.6.1 as it's not seen there.  If you're a Windows 11 user, this is the workflow (below) to uninstall 3.6.2. ...
