I don't see the search button in the toolbar at the top of the screen in turbotax deluxe desktop. Why do you make things so hard to use?    I have searched and searched for information about how to search for a form not in my return, and all I get is useless information.  This is so amazingly frustrating.  Does Turbotax really value its customers, or does it just let idiots design its product?

I understand. When you are in your tax return in TurboTax Desktop, the 'Search' selection is at the top right in the gray bar, with a magnifying glass right beside it. Occasionally, when I use it, another box pops up, and  I just close it and enter my search word or words.

In the Windows Desktop program……

When you click on SEARCH in the upper right you either get the Turbo Tax Digital Assistant or the Turbo Tax Help box depending if you are signed in. I have gotten the Jump to links using both ways.  In the Desktop program you can sign in or sign out of your account under FILE on the top menu.

If you are signed in it will say Signed in as [name] under File. SEARCH will open the Digital Assistant like a chat box. Go to the bottom and type your search then click the send arrow on the right side.

If you are signed out, it will say Sign in under File. The SEARCH box will ask you to sign in. If you get a window asking you to sign in, don't sign in.  Click the X in the top right corner to get rid of the sign in window. Then you will have the Search box where you enter your search at the top of the box.
