Question

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

If you are using the TurboTax desktop CD/Download editions, any tax data files or saved PDF's are normally stored in Documents and in the TurboTax folder.

Nope. It installed under thispc/acer(c:)/programfiles/turbotax.

When I save file, it goes to places unknown, for windows 11. Cannot save as to installed directory, says must be administrator. Huh? It's my computer, I am the administrator AFAIK.

I have NO clue where the 2023 tax files are located. Is it maybe idiotic W11 and it's default to the ridiculous One Drive? I want to back up to a USB thumb drive but have no clue where the files are saved.

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.
