Turbotax 2019

[Woody1]

After loading Turbotax for first time and transferring from 2018 tax info, I could not SAVE and lost the entries.  It warned me that I could not save the file.  How come?

...and please let us know what the problem was.  I've seen this reported on occasion, but don't what their final solution was.

If you are using Windows 10, perhaps it's being caused by Windows Defender Controlled Folder Access:
