Tried to file Basic but kept bumping back to Deluxe…had no income or deductibles

I did not know that I didn’t even have to file IRS or State when having zero income and workers comp is not taxable income.

I tried to file free, basic tax returns but system kept me in Deluxe Edition which I didn’t want or need. At end I tried to downgrade or change but it said I had to use Deluxe.  I paid $190 for Fed and State just to get it done, before finding I did not have to file at all!

the only income I had to report was state refund  of @$1600from 2022.  No income, no deductions, no schedules or forms needed, just standard deduction and rent added to state return..got me zero $.  Why didn’t system pick up the no income entered and tell me no filing is needed.  I surely should receive refund of some of that $190!  Help?? Didn’t get any.
