open ,view and then convert to PDF TTax returns from TY 2001 to 2012

Hi,

 

My question is directly related to TurboTax returns, but deals with "Older returns" and how to view them.

I have my returns, in TurboTax saved extensions, that I need to view and then save as a PDF file.  The years are TY2001 to 2012.  The files were saved using Windows XP, and needless to say my computer with WIN XP is long gone. I am now using WIN 7 PRO and WIN 10 PRO on two different machines.

 

My question:  Is there a Windows program that will "open" the above returns for viewing and then have the option to save as a PDF file?

 

Thanks

Those tax years are no longer available or supported.  Why do you need to see returns that old ?

You really need to save the returns as PDFs every year so you always have access to them with a PDF reader ...

If you can't get each year program installed to open the .tax files you might be able to convert them using www.taxprinter.com
