   I agree with you that half the world is still on Windows 10, and most of   
   them are fully on support given the free 1-yr Microsoft extended support.   
      
   Even though I've been using TurboTax for decades, they started pissing me   
   off when they required the Internet a couple of years ago, but I caved in.   
       
      
   Then last year they pissed me off by requiring the mothership account.   
   Again, I caved in even though an account causes a horrid loss of privacy.   
      
   But now that they're requiring Window 11 for absolutely no good reason, I   
   have no intention of caving in, even as I have been using it for decades.   
      
   I think I'm going to buy H&R Block Tax Software Premium 2025 + State.   
   It's roughly the same price as TurboTax Deluxe + State at Costco for   
    a. One federal e-file   
    b. One state e-file   
      
   What I need to know before making that decision is what others have found   
   for how well H&R Block Tax Software reads in the 2024 TurboTax data files.   
      
   Anyone have experience with that which they can share with the rest of us?   
    Q: How is the transition from TurboTax to H&R Block Tax Software?   
    A: ?   
   --   
   When a company like TurboTax does something this customer unfriendly, then   
   that tells us more than any amount of advertising could tell us about them.
