I downloaded Premier onto a laptop that crashed, no fed or state were filed with the purchase code, how can I download onto new laptop?

How can I use a purchase code that is downloaded onto a computer that crashed?

If you purchased the TurboTax software from the TurboTax website then sign onto your account and download the software again - https://shopping.turbotax.intuit.com/unified/downloads?route=myaccounts&cgcview=downloads

How did you install it on the first computer?  By CD or by using the download?  I know you said you downloaded it but a lot of times people mean from the CD.  If you actually used the Download method you can download it again the same way.  Did you get it from Turbo Tax or somewhere else like Amazon or Costco?  Do you still have the License Code?

Did you start your returns?  Do you have the files from the old computer?  Like a backup copy?  If you have the .tax2021 file  then after you get the program reinstalled the first thing to do before you open your tax return is to update the program and install any state programs you had. Then open your file. So you first might need to start a fake return to be able to download the state program (go to FILE - NEW). Enter some basic information, then go to the state tab and download the state program. Then try to open your existing return, go to FILE - OPEN
