Is there a way I can login to my account on the downloaded version, so I can access pre-created games and edit them?

The Windows/downloaded version of what? Please be more specific, as there are several different development tools used to make interactive fiction games.

Downloaded version of what?

ETA: Hmm, the earlier comment was not there a moment ago for me, despite apparently being added 8 hours ago.

My psychic powers tell me this is probably about Quest as I can't think of anything else this could apply to.

Assuming you're asking about Quest (please edit the question if not, as it's unclear):

No, you can't access your online account directly from the desktop version. If you want to edit a game which you started online, use the Download button on your "My Games" page to download your game's .aslx file. You can then open this for editing in the desktop version.
