Windows 10

WTF. I bought the program and then you tell me I have to upgrade? This is total BS.No where on any ad was I informed of this. Another rip off attempt by TurboTax.

The Windows 11 requirement has been widely known and made available since the middle of the Summer of 2025. It's also in the system requirements.
