This type assumes export files are in the location where you’ll store and run the This import type creates a copy of the exported files and moves them to the selected virtual machine. The imported virtual machine has the same ID as it did at the time location. When imported, the virtual machine has the same ID as it did at the time of of export. Because of this, if the virtual machine is already registered with Hyper-V, it export. Because of this, if the virtual machine is already running in Hyper-V, it needs needs to be deleted before the import works. When the import has completed, the to be deleted before the import can be completed. When the import has completed, export files become the running state files and can’t be removed. the exported files remain intact and can be removed or imported again.
