Automatic Login

I just went to log into my pro series tax product. Instead of using my id and screename they automatically log you in by your email address.

I think this is a stupid way of logging in, as your email address could be on the dark web and this leaves you vunerable to someone getting into your tax files.

I did not authorize Intuit to allow my account sign in to use my email address. What a bunch of fools over at Intuit.

I called them and complained and they have to send my concern over to another department to escalate.

Any one else have this concern

A new feature in the 2025 version of ProSeries is the ability to open other years program without having to log in, once youve logged into 2025, other years will open with no log in.

So theyre not logging you in with your Email (I know it says that!), what youre seeing is the email associated with your account, its the logging into 2025 that made the other year open.

 

I honestly dont remember this being complained about or asked for, but I guess it can be kind of handy.

Please re read my post. My pro series tax returns are automatically opened by just clicking on the desktop app.

I DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN. SUPPOSE YOUR EMAIL HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS BEING ON THE DARK WEB. I DO NOT WANT SOMEONE OTHER THAN MYSELF LOOKING AT MY CLIENTS AND GETTING AHOLD OF THERE SS NUMBERS.

I want to open my app the way it was, by using my log in name and user ID

I called Intuit and told them about this problem. I never gave Intuit my permission to change the way I access my clients

Are you saying you turned on your computer this morning, and clicked on the ProSeries 2025 icon and it opened without you logging in with your UserID and password?

Or did you already have 2025 open and you clicked on a prior year version of ProSeries and it opened automatically with no UserID and password?
