How to move TurboTax from one drive to another drive?

My C: drive is on a SSD which is crowded.  I tried to install TTax on my F: drive, which seemed to work.

Now I need to download updates and the downloads error out.  I think I need to move (or reinstall) TTax to my C: drive.  But I don't know how to do that.  Please advise.

How to move TurboTax from one drive to another drive?

Turbotax doesn't like to not be on the C: drive, it;s just a thing.  The best thing to do is to uninstall the program then reinstall it in the normal way.  Your tax data is in a separate file (a document, usually named something like "Smith 2024.tax2024") and I think that can live anywhere.  You can save it on a flash drive, or move it manually to your Documents folder on the C: drive.
