Starting my 2022 return I selected 'Browse". a document list appeared and I selected 'Turbo Tax' files .
My previous filings appeared up to 2019 but nothing for 2020 or 2021. (I filed successfully in 2020 and 2021.)
Can I recreate the missing files particularly the 2021 from my TurboTax Standard's 2020 and 2021 software which are on my desktop?
I run Parallels and Windows 10 on my Mac, desktop. I updated to Windows 10 within the last year, which might explain some loss of data!
I would appreciate any advice, to avoid manual data transfer after using the software for many years!

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
I followed your advice and telephoned for assistance.
The answering system is not capable of dealing with detailed information when requesting a reason for the call.
After two email responses I asked for a real person, which worked.
Unfortunately looking at my screens did not appear to be an option.
The only advice was to check my trash file for a deleted turbotax 2021 file, which was not found.
I went through the 2021return process to see if the system would resave the transfer data but nothing changed in the TurboTax files in 'documents'. I still only have the files up to 2019 but no more.
Since my last post trying to save a copy of 2021, I reopened TurboTax 2021 again and hit open an existing tax return and this time the file appeared with a new revision date, so obviously my attempt worked and I was able to put a copy into the document file. This I called up in Turbo Tax 2022 and transferred the data to new returns.
Problem solved.
