Won't Connect to Store to Pay for E-File

I am trying to e-file my federal and California returns.  TurboTax sends me to a screen to complete my purchase.  I click the Complete button to be sent to online store to pay the $20.  I click it and nothing happens.  I close it.  Then start over.  I click "We can help you there" after the phrase Having trouble with your purchase or internet connection.  Nothing happens when I click that either.  I'm stuck.  Only option is to not e-file (which I don't want to do).  Does anyone have any thoughts about how to get around this?

    I am having the same issue, Need to pay state processing fee, directs to turbo store to pay, but freezes and will not go there.  I then tried using the deduct from tax return option, which uses a third party and cost additional $60, feel like I am getting scamed.

    I ended up finding the solution. Don’t ask me why it works but it does. Go into your display settings and change from current (probably something like 1920 x 1200) to lower (maybe 1024 x 768 or a little higher). This has something to do with how TT is working with new computers. I got mine in December 2020. Hope this helps.

    Thanks 

    I found another solution, probably has the same effect. I simple change screen from 125% to 100%

    Me too.  Last year's version so much better and easier.  Last year it got you to the credit card payment screen and was simple.  This year, I can't get there.  It goes in circles.  The navigation and user experience is terrible.  You ruined it.
