After you get the program reinstalled the first thing to do before you open your tax return is to update the program and install any state programs you had. Then open your file. So you first might need to start a fake return to be able to download the state program (go to FILE - NEW). Enter some basic information, then go to the state tab and download the state program. Then try to open your existing return, go to FILE - OPEN

I've tried to solutions recommended in this feed it is not working. It's a continuous loop. I even had to pay for the state AGAIN separately and it still won't work right.
