Reinstalling 2019 and 2020 TurboTax

wsoudersjr — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 10:42:58 GMT

My computer died and I am trying to reinstall previous versions of TuirboTax on another computer because I do have the .tax2019 and .tax2020 files. These purchases were from Costco and downloaded from SDS Software Download Store (esd.synnex.com)(. But the license codes they provided will not work with the downloads I make from ttlc.intuit.com. Any advice for me?

Why do you need to open your data files? Do you have them saved as pdf files?

Even if you reinstall the Desktop program, you will never be able to install and activate the 2019 program with the License Code. The License Code started in 2019. So 2019 needs to connect to Turbo Tax to verify the License Code. But they have stopped supporting 2019. They only support the last 3 years.

Do you need to save them as a pdf file? If you have old .tax files you can try converting them to pdf files at Www.Taxprinter.Com
