    Most files have a somewhat logical name base. My guess is it is a Count (Cnt) of US (1040) returns being done as a comparison to your License (Lic) agreement. 

    I don't see it on my machine, with unlimited license. (Yes, I see hidden files)


    Here's wishing you many Happy Returns

    Not the answer, I don't like guessing on a legitimate question that could affect security or reliability.

    Call Support. Your question is being posted to other users. When you find out, comeback and post an answer.
    Maybe @IntuitBettyJo can chase down a definitive answer for you.

    I usually look for threads online first. Intuit level 1  support led me to think this was a technical support blog.

    They tend to do that. It is not true.

    @ewilgus This is a P2P user-supported forum, not a technical support blog.  There are a few Intuit employees who may stop by from time to time but primarily as moderators rather than support.
