Icon Set from GIMP produces on one icon

I am trying to create an Icon Set (8 icons) using GIMP 2.8, I have each icon on it's own layer.  When I export as .ico the tool shows me all eight Icons, but when I try to use the icons (Windows Shortcut, properties, Change Icon), only the first icon is available.

Each ICO file should have one icon, eventually in multiple sizes.

As you have various icons in one size, you have to make eight ICO files.
