Unable to open TurboTax 2025 after earlier use.

After using TT 2025 for several weeks, and entering much data, I can't open program by clicking desktop icon. Can't run as administrator.  Suggestions? If I uninstall and re-install, do I lose data I have entered?

No you won't lose your data.    Your return is kept in a separate file ending in .tax2025.  Are you on Windows or Mac?  In Windows it should be in your Documents then in a Turbo Tax folder.  OR search your computer for all files ending in .tax or .tax2025.  You should save a backup of it by copying it to a flash drive or something external.  

 

 Yes try reinstalling the program.
