Question

2021 indicated a previous year would open with a different color. This would help so much. But, it's not working. Where is the option to choose to use that feature?

Which year are you referring to?  I downloaded 2021 and the 2020 now has puce  or some other background color when I open it.

I don't have a different color either, but I haven't looked in 2021 options to see if I need to check a box. For me same color for all years is fine

Yeah, I tend to look at my paper file rather  than the prior year program so I have never had an issue with getting the programs confused.  For the new preparers out there, paper is a substance that allows you to see the printed word without the aid of an electronic device.  I am still proud of my membership in the Luddite Society.
