Try changing the name from *.chk to *.img.

Your attached picture shows what's in the zip archive; it does not
show that you've extracted the file(s) from the archive. Which you'd
need to do before you could load the ".chk" file into the router.

Says who? Did you try it? How exactly?

That sounds to me like a seriously poor idea. Have you ever actually
tried it? On anything?
