I have an issue : I don't have any Windows Phone Emulator that appears in my Visual Studio while i have Visual Studio Ultimate 2013.
I read that WP SDK is included in VS Ultimate 2013, but there is no emulators proposed when i want to debug my application. There is only 'Device'. So I tried to install the WP SDK. So now I have a VS Express for Windows Phone Edition and when I want to try to debug with an emulator, there isn't any.
And my computer support Hyper-V and Hyper-V is enabled. I don't understand what is the origin of my issue?
Thanks for any help

Ok I found a solution : after installing the Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 RC, it works perfectly.
Here the link for the download : http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42307
Thanks for your help guys
I'm planning a side project with some colleagues but not everyone has licenses. We were thinking of releasing an app for both Windows 8/8.1 and Windows Phone 8 platforms. I don't have a lot of experience working with Express versions, but for some reason Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Phone seems to not exist on their site, but without any explanation. I'm wondering if anyone knows if Windows Phone development:
exists normally in 2013, and the marketing page is simply botched?
can not be done at all in Visual Studio Express 2013?
can be done in Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows, after installing a Windows Phone SDK?
can be done without an MSDN License only in Visual Studio Express 2012?
Windows Phone 8.1 development tools are now available from Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 or later. As of Nov 2014 we are now at Update 4.
You can install the full VS Express 2013 for Windows with Update 4 from here: http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/
(Make sure you pick VS Express 2013 for Windows and not VS Express 2013 for Windows Desktop)
If you already have the RTM version of Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows installed, you can install just Update 4 from here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=390465
I am pretty sure it has something to do with Windows Phone 8.1 (or whatever they will call it) not yet been released.
VS 2013 is all about Windows 8.1 so by now you can develop in VS 2013 for Windows Store (Windows 8.1 and Windows 8), Windows Desktop (Windows 8.1 and previous) and for Web.
As for Windows Phone, as we are still on WP8, there is no 2013 Express version for it (yet). We will probably see a new 2013 version of VS Express for Windows Phone when WP 8.1 is out.
That is what i think.
I was confused by the same thing. I have upgraded to Visual Studio 2013 for Windows 8, Windows 8 Desktop and Web development - but windows phone 8 development is currently still in Visual Studio Express 2012. I'm assuming that it will be brought into line soon.
In Visual Studio 2013 Update 3 there is the option of building both Windows Phone 8 apps, Windows 8 apps as well as Universal Apps. Also the latest update support the Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 8.1 development. By default they start as 8.1 supported projects. There is a option to build and Blank App (Windows Phone Silverlight) app template where you can select the target OS version whether is is Windows Phone 8 or Windows Phone 8.1
I am trying to compile a Windows Phone 8 app on Visual studio 2012 but I keep getting an error stating that I need a 64bit machine running Windows 8 pro... but I have a 64bit machine running Windows 8.
Is there a Windows 8 Pro? There is only an Win8 Pro (Upgrade) and from the MSDN Downloads there are only Win8 and Win8 Enterprise.
Error Message
System Info
You need a Win8 Pro or Enterprise for Hyper-V roles. Your machine looks to be a Win8 basic edition.
I know that the SDK is not finished, yet a few lucky developers have got their hands on it already, so here's my question: when you installing Windows Phone 8 SDK, did it install the SDK in Visual Studio 2010 also, or just on the 2012 edition (including 2012 Express)?
After posting my question, two different developers that had access to the SDK contacted me directly stating that there is no integration of the Windows Phone 8 SDK in Visual Studio 2010, just on the 2012 version.
No, You need Visual Studio 2012, Windows 8 Pro or Enterprise x64 + processor supporting SLAT for running Hyper-V.
You can now download the WP8 SDK here:

I have been playing around with Windows 8 Developer Preview and Visual Studio 11 Express, but I am facing an issue that is a bit annoying. Every 1 or 2 days, I get the following error when I open Visual Studio: "could not obtain license due to error 80090317"
This issue is mentioned here and here, but in both cases it is said that the issue shows up when Windows 8 is installed as an upgrade to Windows 7, which is not my scenario. I did a clean install in an new partition and installed all the updates available. The workaround I have found so far is to put the date of my system a few months in the past, run Visual Studio and acquire a license, then put the current date back. This works for a while until the message shows up again.
Has someone faced this issue?
Has someone a more permanent workaround for this?
A bit more details on my current setup:
Do not use the Developer Preview.
Download the Windows 8 Consumer Preview and the Visual Studio 11 Beta
Update as for June 15, 2012:
Download Windows 8 Release Preview and Visual Studio 2012 Release Candidate
