Yes, I know that, but it's too much trouble to reinstall for just one client. That's why I'm interested in TAXMAN's remembrance of a way without killing off the program. While Will R. might see danger and huge problems in deleting them; I don't. To me, a paper copy is functional for investigation and checking as long as I can read English. If change is needed, I'll do a 1040X from scratch. Too, I'll keep the last three years' clients until refund times expire. Thank you for the friendly advice, but I don't want want to abandon the old days. While I have no doubt your office is fully equipped with 6TBs of warp drive and a memory bank which won't expire until the twelfth of never, I much prefer software that suits me instead of some damned machine.

What if you tell them you work till 3:00 and they stay in your hair till 3:10? Can I toss paper at them? How about ink? Wow, I am so lazy in the off season I am totally hijacking this thread right now and then going home.

Besides, a small scratch won't render a paper copy useless.

Respectfully, I investigate paper copies every time a new client hands me a prior year return. If I find a error, I can fix it.

What if they steal your paper copies? What if you have a fire or flood that ruins your paper copies. What if you can't find your paper copy because it was lost, tossed or misfiled? Sorry but the new ways are better. Plus you save a ton on toner, paper and labor.
