  Is this coming up saying ‘this is not an xml file’, even though you have selected the xml file within the zip folder? If so, this is a widespread issue that so many people have complained about. It doesn’t seem to happen if you use Firefox or Chrome (http://browsehappy.com), so go and try a different browser. If that still doesn’t fix it, then staff will have to assist.
