Column Showing Comparison to Previous Year Missing

I have last year's Turbo Tax file.  How can I link turbo tax to it so I can see the side by side comparison?

You have the .tax2022 file?   Sorry you can only Transfer it at the very beginning when you start a new return.   So if  you want to transfer from last year you will have to start a new 2023 return and lose all your work so far. Go up to File - NEW.   If you used the Desktop program last year it should find your file and ask if you want to transfer from it.  Or  you can Browse to where it is.
