State tax filing

Thanks for the info xmasbaby.  I used the downloaded version, not online TT.  The IRS says I didn't file in 2018.  I have a copy of my return saved on my computer on my own hard drive, and I'm trying to open it with TT 2018.  However, when I go to open it, it says it needs to download CO state.  I don't need the CO state add on, but TT won't open my federal 2018 return without trying to download CO state.  That's where it gets the weird "hmmm something went wrong" error and won't go any further.

I looked for previous years returns by trying to start a 2022 return, but it just takes me to the page to order 2023.  Plus, I don't think they have a copy of my previous years returns since I don't do them online.

Also, I have just one TT account that I use every year. 

So, if there is a way to open my 2018 TT file without downloading CO state, then I need to know what that is.  If not, and TT won't open without having the state version installed as well, then I need to know how to do that.
