What do you mean the Desktop Online browser?  The Desktop is a the program you install on your computer and do it offline.  The Online browser version you log into an account and do it all online from any computer or device.

How to Access prior year online returns
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/270...

If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2023 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2023. I had to go though about 12 screens.

If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups.

Or request a transcript from the IRS

Or get a copy of your return using form 4506

You need software to open a pdf file.  Try installing the Acrobat pdf reader.

You need to download the PDF file not the .taxyyyy file.  You need the Desktop program for that year installed to open a .tax data file.
