Go to the directory in which Quarto is downloaded and double-click on it to start the installation process. During the installation process, you’ll be presented with various options and settings. We recommend to leave all settings to their standard configuration, unless you have a specific need to e.g. change the installation destination.

The installer will copy the necessary files and set up Quarto on your system. Once the installation is complete, you’ll see a “Finish” button and a text that tells you to “restart any existing Command Prompts, Powershell windows, and Visual Studio Code instances prior to using Quarto”.
