Are you asking how to learn how to design circuits?
If so, it's worth starting with books: I Want to Do Electronics! Where do I start?
Otherwise, you won't know what to enter into software. There are some great beginners books to start off.
Also worth (after you've learned some minimal basics) trying out projects from books or the web, and then changing them slightly and seeing what happens.
If you're already familiar with electronics, are you asking how to run simulations with software, or how to create circuit boards? Both of those topics require knowing the basics.
Thank you for your response. I have the basic knowledge. I need how to run simulation. Which software should I use
For typical analog circuit or logic gates simulation, LTspice is a very popular choice, and it's free. Might not be the easiest thing for a beginner. There are simpler simulators such as this one: https://www.falstad.com/circuit/ but they are quite basic. Some other options are discussed here: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/circuit-simulators-free-and-preferably-with-a-video-course/456876/4
Another free option is KiCad: KiCad 8: Working with Circuit Simulations!
Thank you. I really appreciate your efforts
Fair warning: a simulator will not software design a circuit. Even the simple simulators are not trivial to understand, if you don't have the theoretical baggage.

Yes I do have the theoretical knowledge

Sometimes they do. The major chip companies usually have tools for designing and simulating active filters and dc-dc power supplies. Here are some examples:
