Deductions & credits

Yes and no. The short-term fix was the ongoing USB problem that's impacting a very strange collection of issues - we think. I had been using a wireless mouse. I turned off the mouse and plugged in a wired USB mouse. Left the USB dongle attached - that didn't seem to cause any issues, only having the mouse turned on.

 

Whether this was coincidence or not, it solved the immediate problem.

 

Editorial comment:

As I've documented in a number of postings in this thread, this is a software problem that appeared/was created with the 2020 CD version of TT Deluxe. This issue did not occur in previous years. If Intuit Upper Management pays attention, this will not be a problem for the 2021 version. But who knows? I haven't bothered to look at the TT revenue vs the other Intuit products. If TT doesn't bring a huge chunk of revenue compared to everything else, Intuit may decide that it's not worth the ROI to fix this problem.
