I'm running Turbotax on a Win 10 Home version with no issues. Depending on how you use your system, you may run into network or security issues.

Yes, you can install the Canadian TurboTax Desktop Tax Year 2025 (Standard or other versions) on a laptop running Windows 10 Enterprise (21H2), although the latest 2025 version primarily recommends Windows 11. Past tax files (ending in .tax20XX) can be accessed to carry forward data, allowing you to use the desktop version successfully.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

While TurboTax 2025 remains compatible with Windows 10, we recommend upgrading to Windows 11. This ensures you benefit from the latest security enhancements and the most stable environment for handling your sensitive tax data.
