In this blog, I explain how to install QuickBooks desktop software into my PC
So, Once you download QuickBooks Desktop, follow these steps to install it
Step 1: Install QuickBooks Desktop

You have two options for installing QuickBooks: express, or custom and network.
Express install
We recommend an express if you’re:

To express install:

Custom and Network install
We recommend a custom install if you’re:
- Installing QuickBooks somewhere other than the default location (such as on a server).

- Setting up a multi-user network.
To custom or network install:
- Select Custom and Network Options and then Next.
