Just 2 weeks ago I received my Surface Pro 3 i7 256GB HDD, 8GB RAM 64-bit Windows 8.1 Professional
(see image) .
On this, I am trying to install the Windows 8.1 Phone Emulator but it throws an error (see attached)
I have Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows Desktop Version 12.0.3 Update 3 installed. Hyper-V is also installed from Program & Features. Below is the coreinfo -v information as gathered
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4650U CPU @ 1.70GHz 2.30GHz
Intel64 Family 6 Model 69 Stepping 1, GenuineIntel
Microcode signature: XXXXXXXX
HYPERVISOR - Hypervisor is present
VMX * Supports Intel hardware-assisted virtualization
EPT * Supports Intel extended page tables (SLAT)
Can anyone guide. Appreciate!
Edit: Just to add, I have managed to install the Windows SDK for 8.1 successfully without any issues.
I think you have the wrong version of Visual Studio installed. According to the Windows 8 Phone Docs:
The Windows Phone 8.1 development tools are installed with Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows with Update 2 or later and Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 or later.
- Documentation
Try installing Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows instead.
Have fun creating Win8 Phone apps!!
