I had the exact same problem. My error said "Failed_Validation" blah, blah, blah. It wouldn't let me e-file until I installed the update. I checked the online menu and clicked on "Check for updates". It told me that my software was up to date...it wasn't, same issue. I downloaded the "superpatch", ran it and it said the patch was applied. Tried to e-file again, same issue. I uninstalled then re-installed again, still no luck. I ended up uninstalling TT and re-downloaded the software from the place that I bought from, (Staples). I re-installed and opened the program. My return came up. I checked all of the info, payment, DL, and all other info that I had entered on my saved return and hit, the transmit button and it went through. The trick seemed to be, uninstall, re-download the program from the seller, re-install and continue where you left off...I really hope this works for you. Good luck!!!
