Costco only sells the Desktop CD/Download program. There is not a "Cloud" version. You either bought the CD from the actual Costco store or bought the download version from Costco online. I bought it from Costco Online.
I bought my Windows Home & Business program from Costco online. I have Windows 10. Here's how mine went.
I got the activation email in 20 minutes.
I clicked on the link in the email, then chose PC Download. It automatically went to my Downloads folder.
I double clicked on the file to to install it. It installed FAST! It launched and updated. Hasn't asked for the Activation code yet. It said to continue but nothing happened.
So I clicked on the Desktop Icon - got a sign in box. Had to log into my Turbo Tax account. They emailed me a code to verify me.
Then got the Activation box and entered the 16 digit code and was in. Actually I just copied and pasted it from the email.
