TurboTax 2025 was the 3rd app that failed to launch within the past few days. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC quit working a few days ago, saying that msvcp140.dll could not be found. Acrobat Photoshop Elements has the same problem. Web chatter on the Acrobat Reader issue exists, but it is not consistent, so I have not attempted a fix, yet. Microsoft Visual C++ is mentioned by a few people.
I just now tried to launch TurboTax 2025 Home and Business from the app tray, and nothing happened...same when trying to open my tax file. I have a relatively new Surface Pro 11 (ARM), and Visual C++ has six installed versions (2012x64, 2021x86, 2013x64,2013x86, 2015-2022x64,2015-2022Arm64).
Would you suggest uninstalling TurboTax 2025 and all of the Visual C++ versions? Should I also uninstall older versions of TurboTax before reinstalling 2025? Any guess on whether this will cure Acrobat Reader and Photoshop Elements? Thanks!
