Critter-3,
While all the information you provided was interesting and appreciated, unfortunately, it doesn't help with the problem I am dealing with.
I understand making backups of the tax file after filed is a good idea. The problem is when I opened Turbotax to do just that, the file was gone.
What I am asking for is information on how to restore a file from the .taxbak files that are on my hard drive in the folder where the *.tax2021 was supposed to be.
I don't know if you are a Turbotax/Intuit employee or just someone who is interested in helping. I appreciate this forum as it seems it is not possible to talk to someone at Turbotax directly.
My take on the issue is, when Turbotax does its updates automatically when you open the program, the is/was a glitch in the update process that deleted the tax file and now it appears I am SOL.
As mentioned previously, the taxes are filed and I am just trying to find/recover the TT file so i can migrate the tax data next year for 2022 taxes.
Thanks for your help and any additional recommendations you may have.
