One of our people is have the exact same problem. Every time she tries to save (save button, file - save, control - s) Profile freezes solid (will not do anything). She has to use task manager to end the program and nothing is saved.
Having same issue. Also freezing when trying to efile an authorization.
any ideas what it could be?
Hi,
For ProFile freezing when saving ,try going to Options > Environment, File tab. Uncheck the Save Prompt check box. This is a workaround.
This issue is under investigations. Unfortunately this issue is hard to reproduce since it does not happen to all ProFile users.
I apologize for the inconvenience

I started to have exactly the same issue since yesterday, and I spent 1 hour with support desk today. They directed me to try everything, including re-install the entire Profile. The issue was resolved for a few hours, and I started to get the same issue all of a sudden now. I tried the way you described to uncheck "save prompt" box - now it doesn't freeze when I save the return. However, it seems that cloud backup notification window no longer pops up. Does that mean cloud backup is not completed? Thank you.
Hi,
If you do not see the box at the bottom right of the screen stating back up was successful, the file was not backed up.
I f you cannot use the workaround, try a clean uninstall / reinstall, instructions are here.

I have the same problem. Has it corrected for you? This happened after I completed and efiled a family of 4. Now that it hasn't saved everything is gone. Is there a way to get the info back as it has all been efiled?
Hello Duncan,
So this happened to me after I had completed a return for a family of 4. After all of them had been e-filed. So now their entire returns didn't save. But they are completed at CRA. Is there a way to get that information back into the software? Or do I have to re-enter everything but I won't have to e-file completion code or the accepted notification in the software. Will that cause an issue next year when I do the carry forward?
Thank you,
Chris.
You can follow the comment sent on March 2 above to uncheck the box for backup. But as per my next comment on March 3, cloud backup function would have been disabled by doing so. However, it resolves the freezing issue at least.
The freezing seems to have stopped, however the return info was all lost. Not sure if it will cause an issue next year when I go to carry the return forward.
Hello Chris,
you can check in the backup directory under the tax year, you might be able to re-open the backup copy. If you have to re-enter the data, even if you dont have the EFILE confirmation number it wont matter for the carry forward.
I checked the back up folder and it didn't save the return either. I will ask them to bring in the folder I gave them and re-enter the return. Does that have to be done before carrying it forward?
Chris.
Hi again, next year , when you want to carry forward the return, you just need to make sure that the tax file is there for 2022 with all info to be carried forward in the tax file. The confirmation number is not required to carry forward a file
