There may be uninstalled Windows updates.  Closed all open programs and then Restart your computer.

After the computer has been restarted, start your TurboTax program again and see if the updates will install.

If the restart does not solve the problem, then try this -

 

Right click on the TurboTax desktop icon.

Click on Properties

Click on the Compatibility tab

Click on Run this program as an administrator

Click on Apply and then click on OK

Start the TurboTax program and see if the updates install
