Lost 2024 tax return

I can not find my 2024 tax return anywhere on the computer. I have a hard copy but need a worksheet that I did not print. Any way to get it from Turbo tax? I used the desktop version n online version.

TurboTax Desktop saved the 2024 income tax return on your computer hard drive. Are you using a different computer this year that you did for the 2024 income tax return? See also here.

What form or worksheet do you need? You may be able to find the form at the IRS website.

I used TT desktop last year. Same computer but the return is nowhere to be found. I have a hard copy of the submitted forms but I need a copy of the Depreciation worksheet.

What I need is there depreciation worksheet completed from 2024. It is basically gone, the entire return on the computer. I have the copy of the return that was sent in. Just not copies of the worksheets. It apparently became a victim of that unknown inside of the computer invisible shredder😀

Did you open the 2024 app to see if it can find the return? Another approach is to look in the Turbotax folder in your documents section. If there is a file starting with a tilde (~) and ending with ".tax2024" that might be the back-up file that can be opened

the location of the last time used is stored in the registry
