Need to install three versions of TurboTax on same PC

[Frank nKansas]

I installed TurboTax Home and Business 2024 on 'this' PC. --- All good.
Then I installed TurboTax Business 2024 on 'this' PC. --- All good.
Then I attempted to install TurboTax Deluxe on 'this' PC. (I need to install a second 'personal tax' program because I am preparing a friend's tax who lives in a different state (Missouri as opposed to Kansas) than mine. And I may have to file 6 personal returns.)

TurboTax informs me that I can either repair or remove the previous install.
How do I get around this?

You do not need to ---and cannot-- install two versions of desktop software like Deluxe and Home and Business to the same computer. You can have TT Business with either one of those, but as for the other two---pick one.   Every version of the desktop software like Deluxe or Home and Business can prepare a personal tax return.  They both have all the forms and all the schedules.   You do not need to buy two programs.   Choose the one you will use and then if you need a second additional state, you can download another state to the Deluxe OR to Home and Business.  A  second state will cost about $40 to download.

And...there is no getting around the five federal e-file limit by using two installations of desktop.  The limit is an IRS limit.   If you have more than five federal returns, the rest must be filed by mail.

Since you already have Business and Home and Business downloaded, the one you should give the heave-ho to  is Deluxe.   Did you purchase it from TT?

HOW DO I REQUEST A REFUND FOR A TT PRODUCT?

I purchased all three from Amazon.  I've downloaded all three, installed two, and attempted to install the third.

I appreciate your providing the link to investigate obtaining a refund for Deluxe.

Thank you again!
