Can I have multiple years of Turbotax installed at the same time?

Can I have multiple years of Turbotax installed at the same time? Apparently I need to amend my 2016 return; can I leave 2017 installed (and continue to use it) and also reinstall the 2016 software?

Yes you can leave your desktop software for prior years installed on your computer.  As long as you have the space on your hard drive, it will be fine to just keep it installed in case you need to use it.

Can I have multiple years of Turbotax installed at the same time?

Hi there

I have installed 2017 TTax Home and 2017 TTax Business and ran my taxes, then installed 2018 TTax Home and 2018 TTax Business on the same PC and ran my taxes, I then tried to look at 2017 TTax Business and is comes up saying that "Your configuration has been modified (prd.ini, startup). Please re-install"  What is wrong ?

On top of this I have lost my Install CD to be able to re-install so I'll be looking to rebuy this someplace.
