TurboTax 2024 will not launch

The odd thing is that the 2024 software was properly working on my laptop at some point. Something has gone wrong. When I now try to launch the software an error message (no code #) pops up and it gives me the option to send feedback to Intuit, which I have, or to cancel and continue. Once I hit cancel, the software just terminates.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled (3 times now) TurboTax 2024 directly from my Intuit account. Yet, this does not solve the problem. My laptop which is running Windows 11 (always up to date with software, etc.). I have tried to "run as administrator" which does not solve the problem.

I called Intuit and they were not helpful at all. Please help.

 

PS - Other versions (2022 and 2023) of TurboTax launch properly on my laptop.

This worked for other users:

 


I closed it and just started safe mode with networking and launched TT.  It started up and activated.  I then restarted my computer and it started right up.

Thanks for your continued help. Problem still persists. In my case, I don't see what you describe in Steps 8 and 9.
