Replaced the file again with my dummy file. Posted by Laura on February 12, 2007, 12:38 pm Please log in for more thread options >> >> >> >> >> >> We have had this problem since Oct.

My PT 2007 went through the loop of reinstalling the tax update yesterday when I exited the program. I did remember that I had manually downloaded it and it was not sitting in the proper folder. I will move it to the correct folder to see if that cures it. If not I will use the "dummy" file method too. How stupid.

I renamed my dummy file to Tax2007Feb_Release2007_2.exe as the workaround. It looks as if we'll have to rename the dummy file every month - or twice a month.

Try looking at this message on the Peachtree user Forum: http://tinyurl.com/2u6cf7 I finally cured mine by doing the registery edit since I did not purchase the 2007 payroll tax update. Seems to be working fine. Posted by tlcg on February 28, 2007, 6:23 am Please log in for more thread options I finally found someone at tech support that would actually acknowledge this issue. Here's the fix. Find the tax update exe files and move them (not rename). Open the program and run updates. Exit the program and let the updates install. This fixed three different locations for me.
