Question

Loss of Data

Spent hours inputting new data into the 2024 Turbo Tax and saved everytime I finished entering a section. When I was all finished and only needed to input my taxes, I did so and my estimated taxes went to $0 and all my data was nolonger there. Had no issues for years that I used Turbo Tax w/CD. Please help ... very frustrated.

Since both you and TurboTax saved your work as you went along, check your Documents > TurboTax folder. I'm sure there's a backup .tax2024 file that you can use. You might have one that starts with a Tilde sign ~ like "~your name.tax2024". That file is if your computer crashes or your real file gets lost or deleted or corrupt so you can restore it.

Double-click on it and it will open in the TurboTax program.
