You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .tax2008. Files with the file extension .tax2008 can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .tax2008 files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .tax2008 file?
The TAX2008 (other variants represent different years) file type is used by TurboTax, a tax-filing software created by Intuit Inc. The software is solely used for the creation, validation and submission of US-based tax returns. It can be used for both federal and state income tax returns and handles personal and small business taxes. The resulting forms are subsequently validated and prepared for submission either online or via post with the former being much quicker. Encryption is used throughout to ensure the safety of your confidential data. The software was originally developed by Chipsoft and later sold to Intuit. The file extension is often prepended with a year - for example .tax2008 for tax returns in the year 2008. Whilst there are many competitors TurboTax is one of the oldest and most recognized solutions available today.
how to open a .tax2008 file?
Launch a .tax2008 file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .tax2008 file will open it.

what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .tax2008. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
