Updating….If you are using the Windows Desktop program, the first thing I do after installing the program and doing the first update, is change the Updater settings to ask me first. To change the Windows program Update Preferences settings go up To Online - Updater Preferences
Files…..Are you seeing the Tilde files? The ~ is a tilde file. Those are temporary files that you normally don't see and normally are deleted. But many years ago Turbo Tax started leaving them in the folder in case something happens like your computer crashes. Then you can go back. Just ignore them.
The tax files (and PDF files) should be in your Documents then in a Turbo Tax subfolder. They end in .tax2023, .tax2022 etc.
Wanting the CD in hand? What can that do after you install it? Once it’s on your computer you don’t need the CD.
