@rbmickelson Let me answer this a little differently and try not to confuse the issue -
1. If you purchased and installed the 2022 TurboTax software on a personal computer and the computer crashed then there is no way to retrieve the 2022 tax data file. TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.
2. If you used the 2022 TurboTax online web-based editions and want to use the 2023 TurboTax desktop editions on a personal computer, you only need to download the 2022 tax data file (.tax) from the online edition. You need to start a 2023 return using the online editions, you do not need to pay for or complete the 2023 return.
