TurboTax charitable Donations: Bug report

I have entered my charitable donations for 2025, yet the screen still says "available now" I have saved the file, open and closed it, made sure I was running the latest version,  clicked through "update" and it still says the same

    The Charitable Donation section of TurboTax Desktop is available and should be working.  The automatic update you have tried does not seem to be doing the trick.  I recommend you manually update your TurboTax Desktop software.  To do so:

     

    1. Close TurboTax.
    2. Select this link to download the update.
    3. Open the file w_perrelsuperpatch... and install the manual update.

    The above instructions are from the TurboTax FAQ (Frequently Asked Question):  Manually Update TurboTax for Windows Software

     

    If the manual update does not solve your issue, please respond back so we can help you further.
