I hope you have regular backup of your data somewhere.  That would be the easiest and only way to get a copy of any return back (assuming you are referring to a softcopy).

A copy can be requested directly from the IRS. 

I suspect you are asking about just one return (yours), not all of your clients?

I'm going with IRS option.............  who would ever bother to save copies or back up a computer?
If at first you don’t succeed…..find a workaround

I think both of you are right.  Computers and hard disks are so reliable these days, backup is such an outdated thing to do :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Yep...I stopped wasting my time doing backups years ago, right after cancelling my Carbonite subscription :joy::joy:
