How to import a modern.ie vm into Hyper-V

Question

I'm trying modern.IE for the first time. The instructions say to download the vm for the appropriate OS (which I have done). Then to extract the exe/rar files. Then to import the vm. I opened hyper-v manager, clicked Import Virtual Machine, selected the Virtual Machine directory that resulted from the extraction but when I click next I get an error that no virtual machines exist at that location.

Anyone have any ideas? Am I missing a step?

Don't select the Virtual Machines directory - go back one level. The folder you want should contain a file called config.xml.

Alternately, forget about importing the VM configuration. You can create a new VM and just attach the VHD file to it.
