My computer crashed. I reloaded Turbo Tax 2018 but now it will not open my back up files. What can I do?

If those files included a state return then you will need to start a fake return and put in just enough info to install the state return ... then you will be able to open the 2018 tax files you still have.

Turbotax updated and I am unable to open file (.tax2018). Tried to open as Amend return as well.
