may help.

Each year must be accessed from it's associated year program. I suggest you possibly print all returns to pdf as an extra backup. I used a large external hard drive to back up everything in the Lacerte directory. That included all files, programs and data.  I also backed up my documents/photos/.... everything I thought I might want on the new computer. You can get 1 or 2 TERRABYTE drive for about $50. It makes the move much easier.
