How do I load SimpleBLEPeripheral into a ccsv9 project?

Before my PC crashed, I followed this procedure to load SimpleBLEPeripheral into my project:

In ccsv7, download and install (with default settings) TI BLE SDK v2.x
Click View > Resource Explorer Classic (aka TI Resource Explorer) and do the following:
 Enter search keyword: simple
 Find and expand SimpleBLEPeripheral
 Copy SimpleBLEPeripheralStack into project
 Copy SimpleBLEPeripheralApp into project

To restore my PC, I upgraded to 64 bit Windows 10 and installed ccsv9, but I can't follow my ccsv7 procedure.

First question: How do I access Resource Explorer Classic or equivalent in ccsv9?

Second question: How do I load SimpleBLEPeripheral into my project in ccsv9?

I am programming a CC2640F128, not R2.

ad 1) use current Resource Explorer

ad 2) use Project -> Import CCS Projects...
and go to the path where your TI BLE SDK v2.x is installed

The older BLE SDK is not supported with the newer Resource Explorer. And Resource Explorer Classic is no longer included with CCS v9.

So you have a couple of options:

1) Use CCS v8 with Resource Explorer Classic

2) Use CCSv9 and import the project as suggested by Tom. Go to CCS menu Project->Import CCS Projects, browse to the example directory inside the BLE SDK (eg: C:\ti\simplelink\ble_sdk_2_02_02_25\examples\cc2650lp\simple_peripheral) and select the projects to import

I have to select the FOLDER of the project. I sometimes take instructions a bit too literally.

Thank you both for your advice!
