Check to see if it's running in the background.

  1. Press all together CTR/ALT/DELETE,
  2. Look for task manager
  3. Under the application Tab find the TurboTax that is open 
  4. click on end and end session and try to re-open your TurboTax

I am getting the same error.  

I do not have it running in the background.  I don't have more than one application open.  I have one screen open and the error isn't happening in the same spot - I advance in any given page and it crashes.

This has happened five times now. 

 

"You already have TurboTax open in another tab/window, etc.."

 

SUPER ANNOYING!
