I'm trying to write a Microsoft surface application for Samsung sur40 pixelsense machine. I have found some sample projects online and run them on the MS Visual C# 2010, but I want to convert these projects into applications so that I can put them into Samsung sur40 and run them in its surface mode. Do you know how I can actually achieve this?
In order to write these type of applications, I am using the following OS, programs and tools.
Embedded Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Express Edition
.NET Framework 4.0
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) 4.0
Microsoft XNA® Framework 4.0
Windows PowerShell and DMTF DASH support, and enhanced administrator tools
MS Surface 2.0 SDK(an Input Simulator allows me to develop and test projects on Windows 7 PCs)
Everything is working properly and I can test the sample projects on my PC. I just want to make a Visual Studio project to run in the Samsung sur40 machine. Please help me if it is possible? If you need further explanations to answer my question, please let me know and I try to expand the problem. Thank you in advance.
Menual install !
you can't see the folder "c:\ProgramData"
because the folder's option hide~
so..
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Surface\v2.0\Programs --> copy and paste!! and find!!
you create a shortcut of the ApplicationName.XML in your project for MS Surface applicaion
copy shortcut file and paste --> "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Surface\v2.0\Programs"
and following this steps :
In Windows mode, click Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft Surface 2.0, and then click Surface Configuration Editor
In the left pane, click Application Launcher.
In the Application Launcher pane, in the Launcher title box, type the title text you want to appear above Launcher.
The title text will be placed just above the Launcher menu and is left-justified. You cannot change the font, font size, font color, justification, or location of the text.
Click OK to save your setting and close Surface Configuration Editor, or click Apply to save your setting and continue configuring Surface. Restart Surface Shell for your settings to take effect.

I am using Visual Studio 2017 on Windows 10 with the official UWP sample code.
There is a UWP sample called basicinput that runs as a release build within the Visual Studio IDE without a problem.
My problem is:
when I attempt to run the release basicinput.exe executable by a mouse click (outside of the Visual Studio environment) I get an error saying that some DLLs names of the form vs*.dll can't be found.
I did a search for those .dlls and tried moving them to same folder as basicinput.exe, but then the application just hung.
What don't I understand?
What am I doing wrong?
As #Chuck-walbourn says, your application will appear in the Start Menu. If you want to deploy it to another computer (that doesn't have VS installed) you will need to create AppX packages using the menu item Project -> Store -> Create App Packages.... If you need more help with that. see the MSDN docs.
If you want to run your app from the command-line or from the Win+R dialog (with a simple name like foo.exe) you can create an appExecutionAlias for your application.
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".
In the Windows 8 Start screen, I noticed that there is an Uninstall icon that appears at the bottom if you right-click on an app. For the apps that I developed, if I click on the Uninstall icon, it opens the "Programs and Features" dialog. Ideally it should instead directly launch my uninstaller. Does anyone know how to do that? Is there some registry key I need to set to associate Start Menu shortcuts with uninstallers?
I use various technologies to make my apps (e.g. Qt, C#, Visual Studio setup projects, NSIS). On Windows 7 and below, my installers put shortcuts in the Start Menu. On Windows 8, those shortcuts are displayed as a little square in the Start screen. So that shortcut is the object I am right-clicking on. Is there some way to add uninstall data to the shortcut file itself?
Tiles for desktop applications do not automatically uninstall like tiles for store applications. Choosing 'Uninstall' for a desktop applications tile launches the Add / Remove programs experience as you pointed out. This is by design.
My Visual Studio can't seem to build any of the Metro Sample applications. As I've never really used this IDE before, I've pretty much given up.
Can anyone direct me to a sample application that is already built and preferably some source code along with it for reference?
Note:
I have a copy of Windows 7 AND 8. However I can't seem to build Microsoft's File Access Sample in my copy of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. I'm trying to test one of my Win7 applications in Metro mode of Win8 (the application may be called for use during a user's session in a given Metro app).
Metro Apps (that is, applicatons based on WinRT in Windows 8) will not run in Visual Studio 2010. You need Visual Studio 11 express (that comes on the Windows 8 Developer Preview with developer tools English, 64-bit (x64) or Visual Studio 11 developer preview (available for MSDN subscribers)).
According to Getting started with Windows Metro style app development, "To begin building Metro style apps for Windows, you must first download and install the Windows Developer Preview, which includes Microsoft Visual Studio 11 Express for Windows Developer Preview and the Windows SDK for Metro style Apps."
So I think you'll have to do metro-style development from the Windows 8 Preview for now. That website also has some hello world type stuff and general direction on getting started.
You probably can build Metro Style Apps in Visual Studio 2010. Basically Metro is a special type of design where focus is more on texts than pictures. Metro means " Text before Chrome".
If you can build such metro controls ( or you can copy some from any windows 8 copy) you probably will be able to build very basic Metro style apps , but if u wish to build something advanced then i would suggest better switch to Windows 8 with Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate .
I do not know why the project menu in visual basic 6.0 IDE has been corrupted and I don't see
all menu items such as references, project properties,....
it might be useful to know that I have installed SP6.0 of visual studio 2000 enterprise edition.
any suggestion ?
The vb6 ide can be customized.
Try right clicking on a menu or toolbar and select "Customize...", you should be able to see a full list of commands (I can't recall, but there should be an option to reset it, too).
