What is TurboTax 2021 Running Slow on PC?

Switch to forms view to enter the W-2 and the switch back to easy step.  There's no lag in forms view

I ended up downloading H&R Block Premium ($45 on Amazon) and returned my TurboTax H&B to Costco for a refund.

H&R will import last years data from Trubotax, so you don't have to start from ZERO.

H&R ran just fine, and it is just a little bit less hand holdy than TT.

It's not a single W-2 for me, I have upwards of 20 w-2s and then a half a dozen or so 1099s. Switching back and forth continuously would make me Wonder if I was entering all the correct information into the correct form.

Question since Turbotax does not allow to add forms in form view.  How do you create a blank w2g form?  If I already entered several w2gs and now system is slow, it will take just as long to add blank in step by step mode?  Sounds like I should delete all w2gs that are entered so system isn't slow, go to step by step and create blank forms that I need and then manually enter all information in form view?

Have you tried to enter them in groups?   Group together by Casino, then by Type of Wager > add up all of the winning amounts in Box 1 > if there are withholdings, add up all the withholdings in Box 4.   Enter the totals into TurboTax as one W2G.   Only enter one W2G for each Casino and each Type of Wager.
