I used the desktop version to complete my 2024 taxes. Where can I find a copy of my return on the web version?

Sorry you can’t.   If you used the Desktop program the only copies are on that computer and any backups you made….even if you efiled.   You need to have saved the pdf file on your computer to view your return.   You should have the data file ending in .tax2024 to open in the program.  

For Windows. search your whole computer for all files ending in .tax2024 etc?And check the recycle bin and your backups.  Check in One Drive, Drop Box, etc.  It should be in your Documents then in the Turbo Tax folder.  Also if you have multiple Windows user accounts, log into each one and do the search for the *.tax2024 data file from within each one and checking the Recycle Bin in each one.

 

If you don't have the main .tax file you might have one that starts with a Tilde sign ~ like  "~your name.tax2024".  That file is if your computer crashes or your real file gets lost or deleted or corrupt so you can restore it.
