You must move the .tax2017 file from your old computer or from a removable storage device to your new computer. It should be in documents in the TurboTax folder. Save it to the TurboTax folder in Documents on the new computer. You should go ahead and move other TurboTax files both pdf and .tax to your new computer if you are no longer going to use your old computer.
