Message: Feature layer is locked by another application

This message appears on the Editing Status dialog box.

Cause

The layer or table is locked and is read-only for one of the following reasons:

  • Another process is already accessing the data, whether it be an ArcGIS Pro process on your computer, another computer, or a web service.
  • Two instances of ArcGIS Pro are accessing the same Microsoft OneDrive item, and the item is locked.

Solution

Close one of the applications or stop the service that is accessing this data.
