In windows 8 App I added the following line to add 'location toggle button' in permission flyout.
When I disable location, StatusChanged event of Geolocator is getting triggered. But if I enable location, StatusChanged event is not getting triggered.
How to solve this problem. Is there any workaround available?
I had similar problem, but after update to Windows 8.1 the problem has gone. There is one advice: there must be only one instance of Geolocator in your application.

I have a background process running on the user’s macOS machine. Its job is to detect whenever any app is launched on the machine. Currently, I am detecting the NSNotificationCenter’s NSWorkspaceDidLaunchApplicationNotification event. This works perfectly for detecting when an app is freshly launched (i.e. the app had no instance already running at that time).
But, on macOS, if we click the red cross button at the top-left corner, it generally closes the app window and the app continues to run in the background. This is also evident by the app icon visible on the dock with the dot indicator below it. If I click the app icon on the dock and then launch it, the NSWorkspaceDidLaunchApplicationNotification event won’t be triggered.
To track such events, I tried using the NSWorkspaceDidActivateApplicationNotification event. Using this event, I was able to detect all the app launch scenarios. The problem is that this event gets triggered whenever the app comes into focus such as switching windows using command+tab, clicking on its dock icon, changing between two apps, …
Is there a way to filter out these triggers or identify which action led to the trigger? Or is there some other event/ method I can listen to which gives the required filtered triggers? I only want to detect scenarios where a new window of the app is created.
What you seems to want is two different things, as was mentioned in comments, which should be processed separately to be reached.
To detect app launch, when the new process is started. You could use the NSWorkspaceDidLaunchApplicationNotification if it is enough (usually for visual user apps), or kqueue if it is not, or even EndpointSecurity framework to rule them all.
To track the window(s) in the already launched app. Visually, if the white dot under app dock icon is there, the app is still launched.
There is an Accessibility framework for this task, you could track the event of window creation, window destruction, get count of windows from target process id, visibility state and etc.
It is a bit abandoned and has no updates since maybe release, but it will work for you in most cases.
I installed XamlSpy using NuGet in my UWP app.
I debug my application and connect it successfully using the XamlSpy.
The problem is that every mouse hover is responses by XamlSpy what prevents me from clicking on buttons etc'...
How can I start inspect only when needed ?
I tried CTRL+Shift without success...
How can I start inspect only when needed
According to this article, Ctrl+Shift is worked for XAML Spy 2. By testing on my side, I guess you are using XAML Spy 3.
In that case, when you are using the XAML Spy desktop app to inspect, the "Select Visual" button which is for moving your mouse to the app, and click to select a visual in the user interface, is highlighted by default. You may need to click it to not highlight the button to stop inspecting, and click again can start inspecting again when you needed.
Is there any API in Windows 8 that tells you whether there is a Keyboard connected to your device? I believe the OS should have information about this, but I am not sure that it is exposed.
I checked the Windows.Devices.Input.KeyboardCapabilities(). It only returns an object with a property keyboardPresent that equals to 1 on my touch device or non-touch device.
The problem has already been reported on stackoverflow without solution (Provide another solution but which also don't seem to work).
Maybe a work around could be to add a TextBox outside the screen and set the focus on it and register InputPane.GetForCurrentView().Showing and to see if it is fired or not. If it is you can deduce that there is no keyboard connected (and you might be able to reset the focus to the page inside the event so that the keyboard don't actually pop up) and if it don't fired that the there is a keyboard connected. That not a really good solution but might be the best available ...

I am unsure if I understand you correctly. However, it is possible to deactivate the Back-Key in Windows Phone 8.
Just implement the BackKeyPress-Event of your Page and set e.Cancel = true;

Hello I have a VB NET application and I would like to add it a keybord key pressed catching system so I can track any keybord key that is pressed on any application that is running on my computer and uses keybord.
If someone has any idea thanks for sharing it.
I Hope my question was clear.
Thanks.
You will need to use a Global KeyBoard hook, look at this CodePlex Project. It will allow you to intercept the Global Keyboard events.
From Link:
This library allows you to tap keyboard and mouse and to detect and
record their activity even when an application is inactive and runs in
background.
This library attaches to windows global hooks, tracks keyboard and
mouse clicks and movement and raises common .NET events with
KeyEventArgs and MouseEventArgs, so you can easily retrieve any
information you need:
