The Windows default for the '.img' extension is a "disk image file". So when you double-click it, Windows is trying to mount it as a disk file system. Since it is not a disk image, it appears corrupt to Windows (and it should). All you need to do is to launch CHIRP and then use File -> Open (Ctrl + O shortcut) to locate and load your previously saved file.
