This document describes how to install DevExpress .NET Framework, .NET Core 3 and .NET 6+, ASP.NET Core and HTML/JavaScript components and libraries using a wizard.

Run the Unified Component Installer (as an Administrator)

Execute the DevExpressNETProducts-24.2.3.exe file as administrator. You can download the installer from www.devexpress.com/products/try/.
