  1. Press Windows + E<\/b> on the keyboard to open an Explorer window.<\/li>\n
  2. In the search box, type: *.tXX<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The “XX” is the year of the tax data you’re looking for. Ex: type .t17<\/strong> to find your 2017 tax file.<\/p>\n

    On macOS:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. From your desktop, type Command + N<\/b> to open a Finder window.<\/li>\n
    2. In the search box, type: *.tXX\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
