You can try (no guarantees):

Open Prime as an application, not the file,
Turn off automatic calculation,
Then open your file.

Are you using Prime or (real) Mathcad?

I guess you are using real Mathcad and not Prime as in Prime the results at save time are saved in the file and displayed the next time you open the file anyway.

In real Mathcad you would have to save the states of your calculations yourself.

If a lengthy calculation return a matrix of values you may save this matrix into a file and change your worksheet in the way that the lengthy calculation only is done if this file does not exist, otherwise simply read in the values from the file.
