I'm only getting a temp tax file (~), no permanent tax file. I save it manually and/or upon closing program. Sometimes back to back; manually and upon closing. Also give it some extra time.

The solution is embarrassingly simple. Although it has the tilde at the beginning, it's not actually a temp file, it has the extension of .tax2020. Simply rename it without the tilde.
Tried "Save as" a new file name, still only a temp file.
