You're right Don, that these companies can do whatever they way with their software and they can be stupid and put this restriction on it if they want. However, they do have to deal with the fall-out that people are going to go to other software that does the same thing without this restriction.
Your pointing to other specific software to try to justify the point of upgrading to Win 10 is a moot point. There are other software out there can do the same thing and you know it.
The point here is that without a good reason, Intuit added this restriction and the usual customers don't appreciate this inconvenience of upgrading their OS especially if they don't appreciate the inner workings of Win 10. So in short, yes Intuit can add this, and those of us who were customers can and will walk away from their products for good. The truth is, they need us to use their products more than we need to rely on their products as there are alternatives out there. It's shooting themselves in the foot and I'm happy to walk away and flip them the bird.
