How do I open .tax2017 file when using the 2018 web app?

I have used the desktop app every year for many years.

I have the .tax2017 file.

If the online is free, I think it makes sense to use it.

But I want to avoid entering everything manually.

Can TurboTax 2018 online web app import a .2017tax file?

It seems like it should be able to.  It's Turbo Tax paid app from last year.  Why not prioritize in favor of people who paid last year?  Disappointed.

This is not an answer.  I want to upload my 2017 CD/download tax file to the online web app.
I cannot recommend this answer.
