How do I correct a federal withholding amount entry?

I am working on entering my 2021 tax info.
The federal refund shown is over $2000 more than it should be, probably because I may have entered an incorrect withholding figure.  How do I get back to correct it?

I received a 1099-R with a corrected state with the state and federal withholding amount for me and spouse.  How do i just change those amounts to the correct numbers?

@Bob4107 Have you filed yet?  If not, go to Federal > Wages and Income > Retirement to correct it.
