I'm currently trying to update property tax info, but it has happened in two previous sections. I restarted my computer, same problem. I checked for updates, my files are current. Upgraded from Deluxe to Premier, same issue.

.... this is the likely issue with anyone with a blank page during the running of Desktop TTX software on a Windows computer.

.......TTX should only be installed and run as an Administrator..not in some guest account without administrator privileges...but it's hard to know each person's exact setup.

Exit TurboTax....then:

 1)  right click TurboTax 2018 icon

2)  Select  … Properties

3)  Select the  Compatibility tab

4) In the "Settings" box … check the box to "Run this program as an administrator"
