    Downloadable version of TurboTax 2020 installs but will not start. Event viewer contains an event "The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception"

    Exception Info: System.IO.FileNotFoundException
    at Intuit.Ctg.Ttd.Platform.Services.Container.ServicesContainer.Destroy()
    at Intuit.Ctg.Ttd.Views.Controllers.ApplicationController.Dispose(Boolean)
    at Intuit.Ctg.Ttd.Views.Controllers.ApplicationController.Finalize()

    How can I resolve this, or how can I contact Intuit to get refunded if I can't get it to work.

    Please try uninstalling & reinstalling the program using the download from our website. It will not delete any of you saved returns.

    Downloadable version of TurboTax 2020 installs but will not start. Event viewer contains an event "The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception"

    It was installed on a fresh new Windows 10 machine, using the installer downloaded directly from TurboTax so re-installing didn't seem like it was going to solve anything.

     

    But I have found the issue was due to a missing prerequisite, Visual C++ 2010 runtime. So it is now resolved
