<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This e-mail is in reference to the Windows 10 upgrade. Please be aware that
<span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">ArcGIS Desktop</span> 10.2.2 is
<b><a href="http://support.esri.com/EM/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/45362">not supported by ESRI</a>
</b>for Windows 10 (10.3.1 is supported). <span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">ArcPro</span> is
<b>not currently</b> supported for Windows 10 either. Today, we are using ArcGIS Desktop version 10.2.2, enterprise wide. We are working with ESRI to resolve a glitch that currently prevents us from migrating to ArcGIS Desktop 10.3. We feel confident that
10.3 issues will be resolved in the near term.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Last week, AJ and the Tier II staff provided us with a separate test machine with Windows 10. Gary has been very busy testing out Map Direct Lite and the embedded maps in the new Edge browser. He has already documented, that in September,
4% of Map Direct users are on Windows 10, and 2% are using Edge. If you would like to test any of your GIS related apps or try the browser on our test machine, please let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">April has been coordinating with Systems and ESRI to identify any issues with a migration to 10. As of today, after discussions with support staff, we are recommending that GIS users DO NOT migrate to Windows 10. AJ and his team are aware
of this and have access to the <a href="https://floridadep.sharepoint.com/otis/gis/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/Lists/GIS%20Approved%20Users/ApprovedUsersTable.aspx">
Approved User list</a> to identify GIS staff. Because of our Statewide responsibilities, we cannot support versions of desktop on Windows 10 that are “out of support with ESRI”. I have high hopes that ESRI will remedy this situation long before July 1<sup>st</sup>,
2016. In the meantime, please contact me if you have a specific need for the windows 10 OS and GIS.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As always, thank you for your patience as we work through this latest migration.<o:p></o:p></p>
