I purchased Turbotax Home & Business and installed on a Windows 10 system.

 

There may have been other issues with my computer.  When I tried to uninstall Turbotax it wouldn't work either.

 

I rebooted the computer and retried updating Turbotax.  That seemed to work.

The link for "state install loop"  is for 2020.  What is the zip file for 2021?  TTstatecleanup TY 2021  I am stuck with the state loop.  I have purchased three states and cannot load any of them.
