I have no business income or business deductions for 2024, but Turbotax is forcing me to fill out a schedule c

Did you receive a 1099-NEC (Non-Employee Compensation)? The IRS considers this as a business.

Did you have any self employment income and expenses in prior years?

Yes. I have previous years of business income...with a loss for 2023. And now that sole prop earns and expenses nothing for the entire 2024 tax year. Any advice how to deal with the TurboTax myopia?

Thank you so much for your quick reply!
