Install the trial version of QB Desktop 2023 to isolate the problem.

This usually means QuickBooks is crashing silently on launch, not that it’s failing to install. Common causes with Enterprise 24 are a bad update, damaged QB components, or a corrupted user profile/company file. A few quick things to try if you haven’t already: open Tool Hub -Program Problems - Quick Fix My Program, then try launching QB as Administrator. Also temporarily disable antivirus, and make sure Enterprise 24 is fully updated (or roll back the last update if this started right after one). If QB opens with a sample company but vanishes with your real file, that points to company file corruption, not the program itself. If there’s no usable backup, some users try a repair attempt on a copy of the file using third party repair tools like Stellar Repair for QuickBooks for logical corruption before escalating to Intuit support.
