Introduction#
This tutorial explains the installation process of Oracle Database Express Edition (XE) Release 11.2.0.2.0 (11gR2) version!
This version is a portable installation version, just install it directly, very convenient.
Due to the updates on the official website, the installation that used to provide client and server is no longer available, so it will not be explained here!
Preparation#
Visit the Oracle official website to download this version of the database. Login account is required for downloading, you can search for shared Oracle accounts on Baidu!

Choose the version suitable for your system, this article takes Win10 as an example. It is recommended to use download tools or a VPN to download faster!

Start the installation by clicking "Next".

Verifying the Database#
Select the icon generated on the desktop.
Right-click and open the file location, a folder will pop up, scroll up in the folder and find the "bin" folder.
Double-click to enter the "bin" folder, scroll down, and find the "sqlplus.exe" program.
