Here is the solution. The problem is Microsoft C++. If TurboTax won't open after upgrading to Windows 11, try running the installer as an administrator, updating Windows, or repairing the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable package.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of potential solutions:
1. Run TurboTax Installer as Administrator:
Right-click: the TurboTax .exe file and select "Run as administrator".
This can help bypass certain permissions or restrictions that might be causing the issue.
2. Update Windows:
Ensure your Windows 11 installation is up-to-date by checking for updates.
Reboot your computer after installing any updates.
3. Repair Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable:
Search for: "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable" in the Windows search bar.
Right-click: the entry and select "Repair".
This can resolve compatibility issues that might be preventing TurboTax from launching.
