If you have not paid for the online edition you are using, have not filed your tax return or registered the Free edition, then you can clear your return and start over. Click on Switch Products on the lower left side of the program screen while working on the 2025 online tax return. Click on Clear & Start Over.

Online is only good for 2025 now.  If you tried to use the Online version for a prior year you should try to clear it out so it's not accidentally filed as a 2025 return or transfers into next year.
