I accidentally replaced my tax return of 2020 my an empty tax return. .How can I recover it from the Turbo Tax?

It is because all my last years' materials are lost.

If you used TurboTax Online to complete and file your 2020 tax return, you can access a copy by following the steps in this TurboTax help article: How do I access a prior-year return?

If you used TurboTax CD/Download software to complete and file your return, then TurboTax would not have a copy as your tax return would be stored locally on your computer or storage device. 

You can also request a copy of your tax return from the IRS, however, if you have an immediate need, you can get a copy of your tax transcript from the IRS. See How do I get a copy of my tax return or transcript from the IRS? for more information.
