I built a VM using
Hyper-V Manager: 10.0.26200.5001
Mangement Consol 3.0
Version 24H2 (OS Build 26200.5001)
I am unable to import it onto another system with:
Hyper-V Manager: 10.0.22621.1
Management Console 3.0
Version 23H2 (OS Build 22635.3566)
When I navigate to the folder with the VM, it show no VMs available.
Is there a way to import the VM built using the newer Hyper-V manager version into the older Hyper-V manager? If not, how do I update the Hyper-V Manager to the same version as the version of Hyper-V Manager that I built the VMs with?

Hello,
Because a lower version host cannot use the virtual machine in a higher version host, I recommend that you copy the VHDX file of the virtual machine and then mount the VHDX file to the VM on the lower version host as an OS disk to create a new VM.
Upgrade virtual machine version in Hyper-V on Windows or Windows Server | Microsoft Learn
