I logged into my TurboTax desktop version using my desktop icon as I usually do, and have done for the past 12 years. The first thing that came up was the update feature, which I downloaded those changes, and when TurboTax restarted it gave me the online version, not the desktop version for which I had paid. I had filed my taxes via the Desktop version several weeks ago and was going back in to print out a second set of returns for my partner. So, the switch to the online version came immediately after the updates. And now, when I use the desktop icons for my previous year's TurboTax returns, each one goes into the online version. So yes, it was the update that made the change. If I wanted the online version, I would have purchased it.
