Turbotax didn't open

I had issues opening Turbotax 2020 and 2021 in Windows 10 (21H2 OS Build 19044.1415) .

Event Viewer had a .NET error on C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\clr.dll.

.NET repair tool did not fix the problem.

I replaced the clr.dll v4.8.4420.0 with on old one from another computer v4.8.4400.0, and Turbotax opened again.

Not sure which Windows update pushed the new DLL, but it broke Turbotax.

TurboTax for Windows does rely heavily upon the Net Framework.  Good job finding a solution that worked.
