I'm running ArcGIS Desktop 10.7.1 (Advanced) (ArcGIS_Desktop_1071_fr_169511.exe). When I try to install Background GP (ArcGIS_Desktop_BackgroundGP_107_167531.exe) downloaded from our own company's site (and not ESRI site) I recieve an error that BP 10.7 requires ArcGIS 10.7.

My ArcGIS is 10.7. Already uninstalled and reinstalled ArcGIS. Before this version I was using 10.5 with no problem.

You mention both 10.7.1 and 10.7. You need to match the versions. Based on the file names you mention, it sounds like you have ArcMap 10.7.1 and Background GP 10.7.

You'll need to get Background GP 10.7.1 to install with your current 10.7.1 version of ArcMap.

  • Oh, rookie mistake. Thanks. Thought 10.7 should work with all 10.7s.

  • No problem - The .1 version is more of a full release than it is a service pack. Generally (although not advised) software is allowed to be out of sync if its just a patch, but full releases need to match.
