Software bug in TT2021 Home and business. I open program it shows fed tax due, but when I click on personal income wages it corrects even when no new info entered

My return is complete, but am awaiting final updates to 1041 before I can file.

starting today (1/20/21), my TT updated automatically. After updating, it showed a fed tax due, even though the day before it showed a refund.

When I clicked on personal income, and brought up the W-2 page, I clicked continue. The program then recalculated and showed a fed tax refund.

This is happening multiple times, even though I have not entered new data. The software will correct when I click continue on the W-2 personal income page.

MichelleLO,

I am having a similar problem of when I go to click on the update link the program essentially freezes and I get a blank page. I have tried this through the "walk me through everything" and the "I'll do it my self". Neither of the two methods of entering data for a W-2 are working for the software I have loaded. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Then after the second uninstall I tried to go and download the program, which I then discovered the license code will not allow since I had already used the CD. (not cool by the way TT).  So I am at a loss in order to fix this bug. Thanks
