Error cannot be cleared referring to PDF attachment while the extension box is checked, even though the box is not checked to efile an extension?

The extension was not electronically filed and I cannot clear the error regarding the pds attachments.

The error clearly says, "You have attached pdf attachments while the federal extension checkbox is checked. Please remove the pdf attachment"

I have removed the attachments multiple times and then reattached. The extension box is NOT checked and I cannot clear the error. Seems like a box is checked somewhere to efile the extension but I cannot find it.

The federal extension box in Part VII is not checked. I have even removed the 4868 (which was activated to print so the client could mail it with a check), still no luck in resolving the error.

I have this same issue now, it won't allow me to efile the amended 2021 tax return and keeps giving me that error. Did they end up finding a solution?

I did not call support, I saved the existing file under another name and transferred the file from 2021 to 2022 then re-keyed the information. Sent the new file electronically no problem.
