Windows 11

Apparently my computer cannot support Windows 11. I have to upgrade to be able to use TurboTax.

Is TurboTax going to pay for the upgrade?  Why should I have to pay because some VP's want to boost profits?

I will not use the useless on-line service and maybe TurboTax can suggest a competitor I can use.

This is similar to some sort of organized theft and thinking it should be against some law.

Maybe the execs can invite me to Dubai when they have a get-together at Dubai this summer.

You guys are going to have a long list of angry subscribers.

@user17684487303 Online can still use W10. Workarounds include creating VMs. Other desktop providers for now = H&R and TaxAct. Some think desktop apps will go away completelyin the future. Nothing prevents other current desktop providers from requiring W11 in the future. Could even be for 2026 returns.  Let TuirboTax be the guinea pig.
