can't get 2023 to install completely. Keeps giving me error messages

I can't get TurboTax 2023 to install correctly. It gives me two errors. 1) The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. 2) The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP140.dll was not found. What do I need to do to resolve this. I have the latest Microsoft updates. I have turned off the router and computer and then restarted and downloaded again with the same result.

    This is a new one, just showing up now....but, I also noticed that Microsoft has just issued a couple of new OS updates.

    I wonder if this error is due to an individual having their Windows OS updates partially-installed, but not rebooted yet .

     

    i.e. For anyone who encounters this, they may need to first make sure all their Windows updates are fully installed, and they have rebooted their computer.  Then try the TTX installation.

    I just got home with the Turbotax CD.  It won't install because of the msvcp140.dll and vcruntime140.dll errors.  I am up to date on all windows updates, computer restarted, turned off the antivirus, and it still shows the errors....running HP with Win 11.....Plan to raise as much of a stink as I can to get this figured out..come on T-Tax what gives?

    I'm having the same errors trying to install 2023 TurboTax Premier.  TTax keeps stating that TTax can't be installed because MSVCP140.dll and VCRUNTIME140.dll are not found.  I've updated the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package as recommended on other websites, but it still doesn't work.  I've spent several hours  researching this problem and haven't found a solution.  Intuit should troubleshoot this stuff and make sure it works before selling the software.  VERY FRUSTRATING!!

    im not sure if this will help you or if this is the actual answer/issue - we have onedrive setup to sync the infp on my laptop and the sync was paused... once I turned the sync back on, I had no problem installing the turbotax from disc.

    If using Parallels Desktop on a Mac, you will need to isolate the Win10 system from the Mac system, in order to install TurboTax Advantage Business 2023 desktop CD (no Mac CD available, only Windows).  Solution is to click the Parallels Windows 10 gear icon, Security, Isolate Windows from Mac.  Sign out of Win 10 and sign back in.  Installation will proceed normally within Windows 10.

    Every computer has a unique combination of components, settings, programs, services, and users. This means TurboTax can install and run flawlessly on one computer, but another computer's configuration can cause conflicts when installing, launching, or running TurboTax.

    This article troubleshoots the more common causes of installation failures or errors when running TurboTax.
