Installing this patch on Windows

Installation Steps:

The ArcGIS product listed in the table must be installed on your system before you can install a patch. Each patch setup is specific to the ArcGIS product in the list. To determine which products are installed on your system, please see the How to identify which ArcGIS products are installed section. Esri recommends that you install the patch for each product that is on your system.

  1. Download the appropriate file to a location other than your ArcGIS installation location.

    ArcGIS 10.6.1   Checksum (Md5)
         
    ArcGIS Desktop ArcGIS-1061-DT-GU-Patch.msp 194C38ABF66D53E86DC64CDB779FB874
