How do I delete transferred tax data in 2025 return and enter manually in desktop version?

Why do you want to delete the transferred 2024 data? The only way in the Desktop program is to start over with a new return and not transfer. But then you would need to re enter everything you've done so far. Go up to File-New. Then you can ignore the wrong return or delete it.

Thank you. That would be perfect except there's a LOT of complex data already entered. The problem was from something pretty careless & dumb - I changed a single figure [Capital and other gains (losses)…specifically Line 17 on Form 4797 - Sales of Business Property] to try to get an estimate for my 2025 tax payments, & then used the changed return for my transfer-duh!?!? I don't think it'll mess up the accuracy of my 2025 return but it does screw up a lot of TT comparisons for my personal use. If I could just change that one transferred figure back somehow???...oh, well.
Thanks again. 🙂 Shawn
