How do I EXPORT a Turbotax file to my documents folder?

Where is it now?  Turbo Tax Desktop saves both the .tax files and pdf files in your Documents then in a Turbo Tax folder.  Find your Tax file in Windows

If you have the file somewhere else like in OneDrive or on a flash drive you can just select it and drag it to Documents.  Or open your return in the program and go to File-Save As or Save to PDF.

I recommend keeping at least the last 4 year of tax returns  to your hard drive as a PDF well as backing up the tax data file for each year to a removable storage medium.  You'd need that if you ever were to lose data and needed to amend your return.

Here are links to instructions:
