I had the same problem. I called this morning around 9 am and the problem was so simple. Click on tools- options-firm preparer and double check your PTIN. click on verified your PTIN is correct. BINGO! problem solved. No more errors

I finally closed ProSeries and went to start menu and selected "Tools - Repair Updates" under ProSeries 2023.  That fixed the problem.

Very strange that update products in ProSeries would not work....

It may not be enough to 'update installed products', or even update from the Windows start butting. You may need to to hit the 'repair tools update' thing. That worked for me.

I checked the box. Its still not updating. I called customer service after waiting for almost an hour the representative phone disconnected. Now the wait time is over an hour. I'm so frustrated at this moment.
