Why can I not amend my 2018 tax return?

I see my 2018 return but I am unable to follow the instructions on downloading TurboTax Desktop 2018 for Windows.

If you used the TurboTax online editions to complete and file the 2018 tax return -

NOTE - If you paid for one of the TurboTax 2018 online editions then contact TurboTax support and they can push a 2018 desktop installation file to your download account at no charge -  https://support.turbotax.intuit.com/contact/

 

Otherwise you will need to purchase and download one of the 2018 desktop editions from this website to amend the 2018 tax return - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/
