Where does turbotax keep my data on the hard drive - what folder? I don't just mean the PDF tax file output.

I assume that you have already done a hard drive search, both local and remote, for the tax data files using wildcard search parameters, ie *.tax* on the Win 11 PC.  And the tax return was saved using the Save or Save As...under the File menu?

Yeah.  Like I said, multiple turbotax documents, all empty.  Until just now there is one directory with the 2023 return.  A copied all old tax files from a USB stick to a turbotax directory that I think is on OneDrive.  The problem is multiple turbotax directories with different files.  I'm on my computer now, and I'm done walking back and forth to the W11 computer and accept the W11 and OneDrive monstrosity sucks.

 

Thanks for your help.

I have work on uninstalling Turbo Tax for weeks now.  Does anyone have a list of all files Turbo Tax installs so I may delete and try a clean install.  Nothing else has helped.  Uninstall will not uninstall Turbo Tax. I have manual deleted everything I could find related to turbo tax and intuit still install Turbo Tax doesn't work.

Here's How to Forcefully Uninstall TurboTax.

 

When you re-install, use the C drive, turn off anti-virus programs, and run as Administrator.
