starting fresh with desktop program

I bought QuickBooks Premier desktop version a few years ago, installed it and set up the basic company information, then got overwhelmed.

I understand more about business now and want to start over, but it says I have to keep the company I created.

Is there a way to remove this company since no data was ever entered and start fresh without having to buy another subscription/program?

I tried checking online answers, but couldn't find anything.

You may create a new company file anytime you need for free on QB Desktop. Navigate to File menu > New Company.
