Same here! I have been hoping for someone to reply to your message all weekend. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Home & Business 2019 several times. Restarted the computer several times. I even tried the Business patch. It doesn't work. Still cannot e-file my federal or state tax return and Intuit shows that all the necessary forms are available for e-file. But I can't update the software and keep getting error messages about forms not being available and needing an update. When I try to update with the system, it says the software is up to date. When I do the manual patch, it says Turbo Tax 2019 is not installed. And they've already taken my money for processing the state return even though I can't file anything! I've used Turbo Tax for many years and this is the glitchiest year ever. One problem after another.

@TerukoL That is the manual patch we are talking about. It doesn't work!

Same here, the new TurboTax 2019 Individual – R17 patch is not working, same issue as before.

And it is not the state loop" issue, which @DonnaLO is suggesting in this thread.

Here the original Ttax Home and Biz install file, and the R17 patch, just downloaded.
