A full or corrupted cache can cause problems in TurboTax, so sometimes you need to clear your cache (that is, remove these temporary files).

Hi GiseleD

Thank you so much.  That solved the problem.  When I opened turbo tax again it came right back to where I left off and nothing was lost.  I was then able to complete my tax submittal.

Thanks again   mgcasis
