Backing up software

I have multiple TurboTax Desktop versions on my Windows 11 computer going back several years. How can I backup the software so I can restore it in case of a hardware failure or upgrading to a new machine?

Backing up software

You can't.  Software needs to be installed from the cd or download it again.  And you can only install Turbo Tax for the last 3 years.  Even if you install older years you won't be able to update it or download any state programs.  

Just be sure to backup all the pdf and .tax files frequently.
