Question

Unknown Exception Encountered: What does this mean?

I installed TurboTax Deluxe a while back, no problems. I install updates, no problems.

After an update the program opens, no issue, but many times when I close it the following screen. Does anyone have any idea what this means? I have only entered very preliminary information into TT at this point, but wish to start working on my taxes next week. I don't want to encounter any problems.

Screenshot attached. Thanks in advance for any help.

I got this same error message last year EVERY time I closed out TT. As far as I'm aware, it never caused a problem with doing my taxes. That said, I would still like to know just why it's doing that. Kinda like why, sometimes after doing an update and it says it will restart my Turbo Tax program, it doesn't.
