P6 can be difficult to install.
The software comes in two parts. There is a software interface that connects to a SQL database. There are a number of versions of the software that work on a number of versions of windows. There are also MS SQL, Oracle SQL database options.
The easiest version for a one-off user is to use the latest version of P6 on windows 10 using sql lite.
P6 is an enterprise software and is free to download form the oracle e-cloud delivery system. Please note, you must have an appropriate licence for the version of P6 that you download. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the correct licencing.
