Unlock your old MEW/Parity Wallet with your Parity Phrase

After using the instructions from https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/bd5dys/restore_parity_wallet_from_mnemonic_option_not/ and Downloading https://github.com/MyEtherWallet/etherwallet/releases/tag/v3.9.0 paritywallet. I opened the index.html file with VS Code as a live server as well as locally; it would allow me to Decrypt the wallet successfully with the parity phrase but, would not load eth balance in Wallet or Connect the Any eth networks

So this is what I did to fix it:

1. Downloaded fether wallet https://github.com/openethereum/fether/releases

2. Used parity phrase to decrypt and load the account – will not sync to mainnet but that’s ok.

3. Click top right and “Backup Account”

4. This will Export the accounts original JSON file

5. Enter a password.

6. Save the json File

7. Open metamask

8. Import an account using a JSON File

9. Enter Password just created

10. Boom your money!
