Like so many other users of Windows 10 for Turbo Tax. As I am a self-employed consultant, I have a multitude of purchased software, which I would have to re-purchase for Windows 11. So Windows 11 is not a viable option for me or is Windows 10 ESU. Optional enhancements for Windows 10 are not always acceptable by other outside programs. What I don't understand is why Turbo Tax is not allowable to use as is for Taxes. It seemed to work fine for 2024 taxes. In fact it was the reason I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 because of Turbo Tax. And total cost for other programs was over $1000. Windows 11 could be even more-so. And also, I like my data to reside on my personal computer as opposed to on the Cloud.
What other software won't work on Windows 11? Why would you have to repurchase them? Did you ask the other programs?
Mostly I was quoting charges endured going from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Quickbooks 2018 cost me $449. to upgrade and other software was susceptible to various problems until upgraded. Another would be Visual Basic 6 that is still only about 90% useable on Windows 10 because of missing DLL's. It is a matter of principle that I Don't want any of my data or any program use other than what I have stored on my computer. To me, it is that I trust my computer, not the Cloud.
And with that in mind, I don't understand why Turbo Tax desktop is not being upgraded for Windows 10 usability. Seems it forces users to either decide on the Cloud Online or they switch to some other tax accounting software, which isn't easy to find.
