Do you know how to get Microsoft to tell me which file it doesn't like?

"Take ownership" seems to have resolved the Microsoft permission problem:

This is the winaero take-ownership context-menu tweak I recommend:

Who knows why, but the C:\ProgramData\Intuit\ permission issues which the
Microsoft msiInstaller complained about, had consistently come at around 8%

After taking ownership, the Microsoft Installer now goes to 100%:

The result is that the TurboTax update finally installed itself:

Now I get this message:
.. TurboTax 2019 - Update
... Successful Updates:
.... Program Updates (Critical)
..... (Released 6/6/2020) Program Updates "More details"

When I click on "More details", it comes up to the same thing as befo
.. http://turbotax.intuit.com/support/in-product/434-release-notes-2012-ind/
Which then changes to the same thing it changed to as befo
.. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/turbotax-release-notes-for-windows-personal-tax-software/00/26799

Now that the errant Microsoft MSI Installer finally worked, the update
worked, and therefore TurboTax proceeds, e.g., for audit risk checks:

In my entire life, they never bothered to audit me; so I'm paying too much.
