If you used the Desktop program your data is in a file ending in .taxyyyy, like .tax2019, .tax2020, .tax2021. Search the whole computer for all files ending in .tax or .tax2021. Or look for the pdf files, hopefully you saved the pdf each year. Are you on Windows or Mac? For windows they should be in Documents then in a Turbo Tax folder.
If you don't have the main .tax file you might have one that starts with a Tilde sign ~ like "~your name.tax2021". That file is if your computer crashes or your real file gets lost or deleted or corrupt so you can restore it.
You only need the .tax2021 file to transfer into 2022. You don't need the prior year programs installed unless you need to amend the prior year.
