TurboTax 2025 Desktop Application will not open

[jeremy10]

Is anyone else having issues with the TurboTax application for Desktop not opening. I have Windows 11 25H2 build [removed]

I have tried rebooting and also tried reinstalling TurboTax, neither worked.

If the TurboTax App won't open, you can temporarily turn off your antivirus or firewall. 

If it still doesn't work, reinstall the app using a new installer or fix your Microsoft Visual.

In case you are still having the situation, follow the instructions given in the link below:

Uninstalling TurboTax and then uninstalling Microsoft Visual C++, then reinstalling TurboTax fixed my issue
