Error code 567809 after importing 1099 with over 1000 line item

Hello TurboTax Community - I am hoping somebody can help me with the inability to save my TurboTax 2022 Desktop for Windows file, due to receiving error code 567809. This has happened consistently after I import a 1099 form that has thousands of line items on it.

I have read the support articles from Intuit as well as a post on this forum, suggesting that the problem may be a corrupted file or that I may succeed by saving my file to a new location. I did try saving my file to a different location, and while that did allow me to save after I imported the 1099, I then got the error message a few minutes later after I adjusted the cost basis for one of the 1099 entries.

The workaround I am using for now is to enter all my other tax info, saving every few minutes. Instead of importing the 1099's with thousands of lines, I have entered summary information in TurboTax. This is workable for understanding what my refund will be, but I am getting a message that I need to mail in my 1099 information after I e-file. This doesn't seem like a fully successful workaround, since I am e-filing for the purpose of avoiding a mail-in return.

I've also seen suggestions on these forums that the problem can be avoided by starting the return over. This is not acceptable, as I would have to repeat hours of data entry. I actually already did this once, and then still got the error message when I tried to import the large 1099.

Any other ideas or details I can provide?

    How many transactions are imported per brokerage account? You mentioned thousands of lines, but Turbo Tax states here it can only import up to 10,000.

    Thanks! The 1099 has about 2400 lines, divided among purchases, sales, and dividends.

    I also have another account with the same brokerage that will likely have the same number of lines, but the brokerage has not yet finalized that 1099 form.
