When trying to load a Turbotax 17 disk into my windows 10 desktop, Turbotax gives me a message that Windows is running an update and it cannot load from the disk.

 

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Correct...that happened to me earlier this year.

Windows is waiting for you to reboot to complete a Windows update.

One big windows update required a couple reboots.

Reboot, wait 30 min, reboot again, wait 15 min, then try again with TTX.

(or repeat a couple more times with waits in between....if you have a slow internet connection, some updates take a whole day or overnight)
