Error in loading emulator for windows phone 8 [Can't start the windows phone Emulator] - windows-phone

Actual error "The Windows Phone Emulator couldn't start because the hypervisor isn't running"
but according to the error i enable the Hyper -V option in term & features in Control panel and restart 2 to 3 times.
and i also do all of thing like checking bios that ENABLE the option virtualization and it is ON in my PC.
I also check core-info via checking Coreinfo.exe .
I do all the step included in below link by microsoft for this kind of issues.

Last i check Hyper-V manager and i found no entry of any os,But installing first time visual studio 2012 i found the entry of emulator in that. But now i use the vs2013 Windows Phone SDK 8.0 with no entry in Hyper-V manager.
Error Code : 0x80131500

To run any Windows phone 8 you will need Windows 8 Pro on your computer. I guess thats what you are missing. You can check the full requirements list here
If you are a student try contacting any MSP(Microsoft Student partner) for a genuine Windows 8 Pro key

Deploy to Windows Embedded Compact 7 yields "The bootstrap could not be loaded"

Here's the setup:
I'm trying to connect / deploy to a Motorola Windows Embedded Compact 7 device from VS 2008. The development machine VM is Windows XP (it has tools and SDKs going back to eVC3 on it that will not run on anything newer). It is therefore running ActiveSync as opposed to WMDC. Basic RAPI seems to be working as I can browse the device file system, ect via ActiveSync. This developemnt system works successfully with dozens of other devices, but this might be the first CE 7 device. And again, the error message was simply "The bootstrap could not be loaded".
I'd appreciate any tips on getting a successful connection to the CE 7 device working.
I had exactly the same problem. The solution for me was to install the SDK for the pda. Mine was MC32N0.
You can find the sdk here

No "Hyper-V" in Win Features to install after installing VS2013 Preview

On a Windows 8 machine with VS Express 2010, VS 2012, I've installed Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Preview.
In the end of the installation, an error message appears, giving me this link to activate Hyper-V.
So i entered BIOS, I found a similar option for enabling Virtualization, and set it to Enable.
After finishing restart, I downloaded coreinfo.exe, opened the console as Admin, and checked for asterisk in the row where it said I should check. So there was, which means my computer supports SLAT.
When I go to Control Panel -> Programs -> Windows Features on/off, there is no Hyper-V there as is shown in the link that there will be, and I should select it and press OK to install/activate it.
Will this be fixed by reinstalling Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Preview now?
Make sure you are running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit as the Hyper-V feature is a Pro Edition feature.

Build Server and Windows 8 / RT Apps

I've a windows 8 app and a windows 2012 Build Server with Jenkins and / or Finalbulder Contiua.
No I can only install Visual Studio for WinRT Apps only on Windows 8 or later.
So this means ,that my build server has to be windows , right
is there a way to compule windows 8 apps on non windows 8 os ?
Is there some kind of "build win 8 sdk" for other os ?
Short answer: no, you'll need Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012.
A Jenkins-specific tip: I tried a number of things but did not manage to have it start apps when Jenkins runs as a service. Starting from a logged-in user account was the only way I could get it to work.
Also I'd like to recommend our Apprunner project which we developed to install, run and uninstall packages from within Jenkins.
Finally, if you're working on a Javascript-based app, you can have a look at the unit-testing-related code in our SQLite component which uses Jasmine and outputs JUnit/Jenkins-compatible test result files.

You can't. Install Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone - it is free
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/products/visual-studio-express-for-windows-phone
1) You can start emulator with following command line:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\8.0\xde.exe" /name "Emulator WVGA 512MB.username"
where username is your windows username.
2 & 3) You can deploy/run/delete apps using solution described in JustinAngel's answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/13429709/2087252 .
To make it work you'll need to reference following dlls from your project:
Microsoft.Smartdevice.Connectivity.Interface.dll
Microsoft.Smartdevice.Connectivity.dll
Microsoft.Smartdevice.MultiTargeting.Connectivity.dll

VS Debug to a windows phone device?

My understanding is in visual studio, if i change my debug to 'Remote Machine' I should be able to build and deploy to my phone, and still be debugging it in visual studio.
However, I can't seem to find a guide on how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I specifically have a windows 8 lumia 920 if it matters.
I have VS 2012 on Windows 8 Pro with the WP 8.0 SDK installed.
What project type are you using? It sounds like you may have been using one of the templates for Windows 8 (a Windows Store app), which have the Run dropdown options Simulator, Local Machine, and Remote Machine.
If you are developing for Windows Phone using one of the WP8 templates, the options that you should see in the Run dropdown are Device, Emulator WVGA 512MB, Emulator WVGA, Emulator WXGA, and Emulator 720P. To debug to your phone in Visual Studio, you need to select "Device" from that dropdown. Here is an article with a screenshot.
If you have a solution that contains both a Windows Store and a Windows Phone project in it, make sure that you right-click on the Windows Phone project and select "Set as Startup Project".
