Moving TT from one LT to Another

[Dancarmo]

I bought several years worth of TT from online vendors and I didn't save the name of the vendor and my laptop is crashing. I want to transfer the TT programs, not my tax returns, but the actual programs loaded into folders.....can you do a simple folder transfer of the  files and then quicklink to the EXE file to start the program?

I have 2018 program downloaded and don't want to have to pay for it again - but I have 10 years of TT loaded on the one computer and it's crashing...there has to be a better way to be able to archive the program itself than to have to buy it again.

Sorry.  Programs have to be installed from the CD or download.  You can't move programs.   And Turbo Tax only supports the last 3 years so even if you got old programs installed you can only get the updates and state programs back to 2015.  

If you downloaded the program you might still have the installation file you could move.  Maybe this will help if the other vendors used the same file name.

Here's the support article to find the Windows download
