There is no online program to prepare a 2017 return. The online program is ONLY for 2018.
A 2017 return can only be prepared using the downloaded/installed desktop software for 2017 on a full PC or Mac, and the return must be printed, signed and mailed. You cannot e-file a 2017 return.
Not sure if you would get any sympathy/help from customer support for your lost 2017 CD. You can try:

To file a return for a prior tax year
If you need to prepare a return for 2015, 2016, or 2017 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign, and mail the return(s)

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Note: The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac. It cannot be used on a mobile device.
Do you need to prepare a 2017 return or access one you did? When did you buy the CD? Did you ever install it and need to reinstall it? Like on a different computer? If you tried to install it in the past check the CD drive, maybe the CD is still in it.
