How do I retrieve my home office deduction from last year after deleting?

I had my home office deduction for tax year 2017. This year the work expense/home office deduction part showed up automatically. However I accidentally deleted the work expense item. Can I still recover it? It's a lot of work to recreate it. Thanks.

You can no longer deduct a home office for work done as a W-2 employee, so yu can just delete it.
