I see I am not the only person with a problem like this. I followed the instructions, dragging the Turbo Tax icon I downloaded and paid for into my Applications folder. When I try to open Turbo Tax from my applications folder, I am told it is a "read only" folder. I am on a Mac, using Mac OS Monterey. Anyone out there who can help me figure this out? This is for 2021, but I doubt that makes a difference.

In Finder, click on the applications folder and then press "command and i" at the same time to open the info window. At the bottom will be the permissions. System and the administrator user should be read & write everyone else read only. If the permissions are wrong they can be changed by clicking the lock. It will also tell you if you are read & write or read only.
