If necessary, download the ArcGIS Uninstall Utility and uninstall previous versions of ArcGIS Desktop or Server.  The software cannot be installed on a computer that has a previous version of ArcGIS for Desktop or ArcGIS for Server installed. It's OK if the computer has ArcGIS Explorer installed.

If necessary, install the Microsoft .NET Framework (version 3.5 Service Pack 1 or higher).

Determine the location for the ArcGIS for Desktop software you wish to install and click the Download button.  You can also download the Tutorial Data, if desired.

Double-click ArcGIS_Desktop_101_129796_2.exe to extract the installation files.

Locate and run Setup.exe to install ArcGIS for Desktop.  The “Complete” installation is recommended.

After the files are installed, the Authorization Wizard will open and prompt you to choose a product to authorize; select “ArcGIS Desktop Advanced (Single Use)” and click continue.

The Authorization Wizard will prompt you for an authorization code; enter your activated code.  Follow the prompts and the software will authorize and be ready for use.  Note: leave the default option for the software extensions selected; they will be authorized automatically.

 

Support for the ArcGIS Desktop Student Trial is available at esri.com/trialhelp.
