To access your prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Start the 2023 online tax return by entering some personal information then click on Tax Home on the left side of the screen.

On the Tax Home webpage -

Scroll down to the section Your tax returns & documents.  Click on the Year 2020 and Click on Download .tax file

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

The tag below your question says that you are using TurboTax Online. But you cannot prepare a 2021 tax return with TurboTax Online. TurboTax Online is only for the current tax year, which is now 2023. To file for 2021 you have to use the CD/Download TurboTax software for 2021. If you do not already have it, you can purchase a download at this link.
