my hard drive crashed and I can not acces my 2023 taxes. I used turbo tax last year. Can turbo tax transfer them for me to a new computer

I would like to be able to have that information transferred to this years return, but my old computer crashed.

If you used desktop software downloaded/installed from a CD to your own computer, then the tax files are stored locally on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive. They are not stored online. If you cannot recover them due to a hard drive failure, etc. you can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30 an actual copy of your tax return.
