That is true! There is no reason for them to not support Windows 10 and what they told me is not true.  I spent almost 40 years as a system software programmer and unless they are using some function that is unique to Windows 11 only then it's all lies.  And even then, if they wanted to they could leave out that unique function as all was well in previous releases.   Or if they weren't lazy, they could have some "IF" statements in the code ans check Windows version and then work around the issue.    Maybe they are getting paid off by computer vendors trying to force people into new computers for Windows 11??  I suspect that of Microsoft, I went from 8 to 10 without an upgrade.  My computer has an I5 processor, but it was one of the first.  Windows 11 supports I%, just not the early ones.  There is no reason they shouldn't let me go to 11.   Anyway, I have bee planning on getting new computer anyway as I am past my usual 5 year replacement.  I at 7 years and run 24 X 7.   However, I am at a point my taxes are easy and if I get tax software I doubt it will be TT.  Actually, I so old I can get the area council on aging to do mine for free.

Remember there are now FREE options to continue getting Win 10 updates. Use 1K reward points or use their backup. The way I understand it, we should be getting notifications regarding this via Windows Update.

  I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2  (or 1099)      W-2's come from employers.  There is not a federal or national website that provides W-2’s.     TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s).   You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $62).   To get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-02501   https://www.irs.gov/help-resources/tools-faqs/faqs-for-individuals/frequently-asked-tax-questions-answers/irs-procedures/transcript-or-copy-of-form-w-2/transcript-or-copy-of-form-w-2     If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.   You can get a wage and income transcript from the IRS:  It will not show the actual W-2, 1099’s, etc, but will show the income information the IRS received.  It will not, however, show your state information. It will only show the federal information. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript   Or you can pay the IRS $30 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s      https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf      https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-forms/get-copy-w-2/L8FTim9MO_US_en_US?uid=m68ee4os    

What a lie, saying this is for security when a person can still get security updates for Windows 10 for $30.00 .  Also, without any updates you would still be secure and like 100 percent of apps I have now will run on Windows 11 without any changes to the apps.  So there isn't any difference, the programs will run in either environment.   Not using their stupid cloud which is less secure and can be hacked by anyone who really wants in, we all seen the hack to other major companies- even government.  Here is the lie I received:   Hi there, We’re reaching out to provide an update on TurboTax Desktop software for tax year 2025. After October 14, 2025, Microsoft will no longer provide software updates, technical assistance, or security fixes for Windows 10 operating system. Because security is a top priority for us, TurboTax Desktop software for tax year 2025 onwards will not be compatible with Windows 10 operating system. To use TurboTax Desktop software for tax year 2025, your computer will need to run on Microsoft Windows 11 operating system. You can also consider switching to TurboTax Online, which will work on any supported browser (available December 2025). For more resources and additional information about this change, go to this help article: How does the end of support for Windows 10 affect my TurboTax Desktop experience? Thanks for being part of the TurboTax family. Warm regards, The TurboTax Team

@randob  Did you install today's updates? The changes are only in the update that was released today (8/21/25).   Did you check the box at the top of the column where it says "Check box to use 2025 tax rates"? You have to check that box to get the higher SALT limit.  

Sorry, You can't install or reinstall or update 2019 anymore. They only support the last 3 years and took off 2019 when they moved 2022 to the past year section. And 2019 was the first year they started using the License Code to activate the program so it has to log into Turbo Tax. You can't activate it now. It will fail. If you need to see the tax return and didn't save the pdf file, you could try the TaxPrinter service to convert a .tax2019 file to pdf at https://www.taxprinter.com
