How do I switch from "E-file" to "File by mail" for state return in TurboTax Windows

How do I switch from "E-file" to "File by mail" for a state return in TurboTax Premier Windows version

 

I have seen several similar questions concerning Turbo Tax Online.  I am not using Turbo Tax Online. My question is about switching the filing method on the Turbo Tax Windows version.

 

I previously selected e-file for both federal and state returns.  I have already successfully e-filed my federal return.  I have not yet e-filed for state.  I previously selected "Do not e-file my state return now, I'll do it later".  Now, I wish to change that option to file by mail.  How do I do that?  The only two options presented are "E-file my state return now" and "Do not e-file my state return now, I'll do it later".

 

Thanks

The answer is you have to go back a few screens and then select 'file by mail'.  I didn't do so prior because I was worried this would somehow negate my Federal e-file.  It doesn't.  Following the screen prompts and than select 'file by mail' when the state prompts hit.
