Welcome to Geographic Information Systems Stack Exchange
Geographic Information Systems is a question and answer site for people interested in GIS, Remote Sensing, Photogrammetry, Geodesy and Surveying, as well as Programming/Databases specific to the aforementioned.
It is built and run by you as part of the Stack Exchange network of Q&A sites.
With your help, we are working together to build a library of detailed answers to every question about GIS.
Your most important question is important to us
Asking one, and only one, important question within your Question helps attract prompt and clear Answers.
Your other questions are just as easy to research/ask separately!
Writing at least a paragraph helps make your questions and answers easy to follow.
We're a little bit different from other sites. Here's how:
Ask questions, get answers, no distractions
This site is all about getting answers. It's not a discussion forum. There's no chit-chat.
Just questions...
...and answers.
Good answers are voted up and rise to the top.
The best answers show up first so that they are always easy to find.
The person who asked can mark one answer as "accepted".
Accepting doesn't mean it's the best answer, it just means that it worked for the person who asked.
Converting lyrx file or style manager stylx file from ArcGIS Pro to ArcMap
Is there a way to either convert a lyrx file or the style manager stylx file from ArcGIS Pro 2.0 into anything that can be used in ArcMap 10.5?
I have symbology for about 100 items in ArcGIS Pro that I need to be able to use in ArcMap.

I just saw by chance, that my ArcMap 10.8.1 was able to import LYRX. I haven't checked if the symbology is complete, but it looks good.
XTools Pro is what allows this to happen in ArcMap

The only way I could "import" a LYRX to ArcMap was to follow someone's else idea of publishing the layer as a Web Layer from ArcGIS Pro to AGOL and then open it on ArcMap. On my case, ArcMap displayed the symbology correctly and from there I could save a LYR file
