Is there any way to get rid of the “help” icon that seems to stay in front of everything that I am trying to read?

Is it overlapping some text? If so, you didn't say if you are using desktop software or Online TurboTax, but in any case, see if zooming your screen in or out helps any. We can tell you how to enlarge/reduce item size depending on which version you are using--i.e., desktop software or online browser version.

It depends. You may need to resize your monitor screen and make it smaller so that the dreaded help icon doesn't dominate the screen. Here are some possible remedies.

1. Using Your Computer’s Display Settings (Windows):

Right-click on your desktop and select Display settings.
Under the Display section, you’ll see options for Resolution. Select a different resolution to resize the screen.
- Higher resolution means a smaller UI, and lower resolution makes it larger.
You can also adjust the Orientation (Landscape or Portrait) if you need to change the screen's layout.

2. Using Your Computer’s Display Settings (Mac):

Open System Preferences and click on Displays.
Select the Display tab, and under Resolution, choose Default for display or Scaled. Scaled will let you choose a lower or higher resolution to adjust the size.

3. Adjusting with Monitor Buttons:

Most monitors have an on-screen display (OSD) menu that allows you to resize or adjust the image. Look for a button on your monitor, usually labeled with something like "Menu" or "OSD." From there:

Navigate to Image settings or Display settings.
Look for options like Auto Adjust, Screen Size, Aspect Ratio, or Horizontal/Vertical Position.
