As long as the states are installed, they will all update. You can delete a state form from your TurboTax program.  To do this:

  1. In Windows Explorer go to:  C:\Program Files (x86)\TurboTax\Premier 2018\Forms
  2. Find the folder for your state.  For example, nci_18 is for North Caroline; vai_18 is for Virginia, etc.
  3. Right-click on the folder and select Delete.

  4. [You can delete a state from just your return by click File Remove State Return.]

  5.
