NETFILE Message Says Commodity Codes Are Invalid

Turbotax 2020 saying my commodity codes that I used are invalid on form T1163.  The 2020 Commodity codes that I used where from this CRA document rc4060-20e.pdf (canada.ca) starting on page 92.  I cannot Netfile my taxes until this invalid commodity code error is resolved.   I need help.

NETFILE Message Says Commodity Codes Are Invalid

I contacted TurboTax Support and they provided excellent help to solve my NETFILE problem.  I would say the Support Person who helped me to fix my problem had good understanding of my issue and had fixed my problem many times over.  To my understanding when TurboTax updates were downloaded into my desktop and it seemed like TurboTax updated my main program, but it did not implement all the updates.  To overcome this problem the Support Person had me right click the TurboTax icon and select Run it as Administrator.   When I did this, I noticed there were many small windows pupping up with short update messages.  After completing the updates, I was able to successfully NETFILE my taxes without any errors.   Before we signed off, the Support Person remained me to remember this tip for future years.  I am sharing this information hoping it helps.
