TurboTax Desktop Help Questions

I keep finding explanations that are for the online TurboTax, but irrelevant to the Desktop Home & Business version.     For example, I was searching for information on selling a rental property and found 
https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/real-property/sold-rental-property-report/L4No7YsIW_US_en_US?uid=lpj51bo8
BUT none of that is meaningful as far as I can tell on the desktop version....   I tried the step-by-step and it had almost nothing and certainly nothing like this...

???

Start in the section shown in the screenshot below.

Note that one of the subsections is not yet available so you will not be able to enter anything in that section (which you need to do for the sale).

I tried that - since I already had a Schedule E, it just gave me an "update" option.   Which just asked whether I was a rental agent.  BUT now that I tried again - when I went to "Edit" on the property, it did start walking me through things

 

Thanks

Except as you noted - the one section that I really need - "sale" isn't there...  oops

 

In any case, I know where to look now...
