# 📂 Import Virtual Machine

To import a virtual machine into VirtualProg, double-click the virtual machine file in Findere (i.e., a file with the `.vpvm` extension). This will open the import window shown below.

> 💡 Note: If the selected virtual machine is already present in the VirtualProg library, it will not be re-imported—instead, the VM will launch automatically.

### Import Window Features

- File Path Display
  The full path of the selected `.vpvm` file is displayed at the top of the window.

- Import Button
  Click Import to add the virtual machine to your library.

- Cancel Button
  Click Cancel to close the window without importing.

### Important

- If a virtual machine with the same name already exists in your library, an error message will appear, and the import will be cancelled to prevent duplicates.

### Tip

Make sure the virtual machine file you want to import is not already in your library to avoid conflicts.
