Get your taxes done using TurboTax
All -
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem. my conditions were as follows:
- Fresh install of windows 10
- Updated windows 10 with all available updates
- TT Prem would start the install, run the 'I don't like your .net utilities', and then makes some promises to fix it that it never squared up on.
- I tried the CCleaner reg-check, cleaned all reg errors -> no resolution
- I tried installing the .net packaged included on the DVD -> wont install because win 10 has a more recent version
- Followed a bunch of support forums and so on -> no resolution
- Ran 'sfc /scannow' in an elevated cmd prompt, logs indicated some issues with .net libraries.
- Ran DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth - which still reported some things it could fix
- Retried TT install -> success.
Pretty sure DISM solved the problem, and whatever was not fixable wasn't interfering. Again, this was a stock/clean install of Windows 10 of of Microsoft downloaded sources (no torrent hacks or any nonsense like that). System was running fine, albeit I hadn't installed or done much with it.
If this is still a hassle for someone hopefully this helps. As a tip - you can also use DISM with another installed box of Windows 10 in case windows update is unreachable or the problem IS or includes windows update. Microsoft has that documented so I wont duplicate here.
