Yes I did the download and the program is in my file explorer but when I try to open the program a Microsoft window comes up and wants me to use an app to open.  I can't seem to get past that window.


If you downloaded the tax data file from the online edition, the data file can only be opened by the TurboTax software for the same tax year as the tax data file.  The tax data file will have a file extension of .taxyyyy where yyyy is the tax year, eg .tax2018 for tax year 2018.

 

If you download the PDF of the online tax return that file can be opened by any compatible PDF viewer, such as Adobe Reader.

 

If you downloaded the TurboTax software the file extension is .exe and does not need any other app to open or install the program.

 

So.....What did you download?
