After you file

So you found the .tax2023 file?  Is it on the same drive as the program?  You might need to copy it to the drive.  It should be in your Documents in a Turbo Tax folder.

 

Are you having a problem?  What is your concern about the files?

 

After you get the program installed or reinstalled the first thing to do before you open your tax return is to update the program and install any state programs you had. Then open your file. So you first might need to start a fake return to be able to download the state program (go to File-New Tax Return).

 

Then go to FILE -Open and find your return.
