What's new
Major and minor releases also include new functionality, which is described in What's new in ArcGIS Pro.
Removal and deprecation notices
Notices are released when it is determined that functionality will be removed from a future version of ArcGIS Pro. The notices describe what will be removed so you can evaluate whether your workflows will be affected; notices also detail alternative functionality so you can find other ways to reach the same or similar results from your workflows; and they provide when the removal will occur, if known, so you can schedule updates. You can browse ArcGIS Pro deprecation notices by release on the Esri Technical Support website.
Third-party deprecations that impact ArcGIS Pro
VBScript
With Windows 11, version 24H2, VBScript becomes a feature on demand. Although it is enabled by default in version 24H2, disabling it will cause certain functionality in ArcGIS Pro to stop working.
In a later Windows release, the VBScript feature will be disabled by default, and you will need to manually enable it if required. Microsoft has announced plans to fully remove VBScript from Windows in later versions. ArcGIS Pro users are encouraged to prepare for its removal as soon as possible.
Snowflake
Snowflake is removing support for single-factor authentication with passwords this year. This will impact connections to Snowflake from all releases of ArcGIS Pro. For information about the steps you must take to ensure that you can continue to access data in Snowflake, see Esri technical article 35129 and the Snowflake to Block Single-Factor Authentication: What You Need to Know ArcGIS Blog article.
Bing Maps
Bing Maps will be retired in 2028 and replaced with Azure Maps. See the Microsoft Azure documentation for instructions on migrating from Bing Maps to Azure Maps.

Licensing conversion changes
As of December 1, 2025, it is no longer possible in My Esri to convert Named User licenses to Single Use or Concurrent Use licenses, or to convert those licenses to Named User licenses.
- Existing Single Use licenses are valid for ArcGIS Pro 3.6. New licenses must be obtained for later versions.
- Existing Concurrent Use licenses are valid for ArcGIS Pro 3.6 but are not valid for later versions.
License Manager is deprecated
ArcGIS License Manager was deprecated July 1, 2025. Updates will be available into 2028 to support software that uses Concurrent Use licenses, such as ArcGIS Pro, until those versions enter Mature support. See Concurrent Use License Type and ArcGIS License Manager Deprecation Notice for more information.
Functionality that will be removed in future releases
The following subsections describe functionality that is scheduled to be removed in a release after ArcGIS Pro 3.6.

Companion ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise versions
ArcGIS is a system that can be extended with multiple products to address many needs. Two products that are frequently used together are ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise. Major and minor versions of these two products are developed together and released within months of each other so that shared functionality can be introduced and improved.
Although earlier and later versions of ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise work together for most functionality, pairing companion versions is recommended. When that isn't possible, staying within a range of two companion versions is recommended. The table below lists the companion versions.
| ArcGIS Pro version | ArcGIS Enterprise version |
|---|---|
ArcGIS Pro 3.6 | ArcGIS Enterprise 12.0 |
ArcGIS Pro 3.5 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5 |
ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.4 |
ArcGIS Pro 3.3 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 |
| ArcGIS Pro 3.2 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2 |
ArcGIS Pro 3.1 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 |
ArcGIS Pro 3.0 | ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 |
ArcGIS Pro 2.9 | ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 |
When specific minimum software version combinations are required for particular functionality, that information will be stated in the documentation for that functionality.
