I can't start the Windows Phone emulator in VS2012 ... I have downloaded the Windows Phone 8 SDK.
It launches, but gives me an error whilte booting:
"The Windows Phone Emulator wasn't able to ensure the virtual machine was running" ...
blalbla ... "... Element not found (0x80070490)
and something about not being able to find a useable certificate?!
Any ideas on how to get it up and running?
Obviously this was caused by a permission issue.
My user account hadn't any permissions to the folder: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys". Giving my user account full access rights to this folder, seems to have solved the problem!

I cant find information on this error anywhere. I am connecting to a brand new lumia icon (AKA lumia 929). Dev account is registered. I have attempted:
reinstalling windows phone SDK
restarting phone
restarting computer
ensured the app runs on the emulators properly. the only required capability of this app is network. Capabilities have not been changed from the defaults since the project was created. none of the manifest xml files have been touched.
ensured phone software version is up to date
ensured apphub account is valid and active
ensured the windows phone developer registration tool worked, unregistered and re-registered the phone to make sure
restarting the "ip over usb" windows service thingy
changing the platform built target to ARM or AnyCpu (no difference, same error)
tried alternate deployment methods such as windows phone power tools (the xap deploy) and I get the same error when trying to connect (so I know it's not an issue with visual studio, nor is it an issue with the app code)
I can successfully deploy separate code to a separate WP7 device (so I know it's not an issue with the computer)
tried multiple usb ports
tried two separate laptops
tried visual studio 2013 and 2012
The behavior is this:
Connect the phone via usb and unlock it
Attempt to connect to phone via windows phone power tools OR deploy an app via visual studio
System hangs for about 90 seconds and seems to time out
Error appears
I am able to view the phone contents, name it and explore it on my laptop, but when it comes time to deploy something I am stuck.
Error message is simply: 0x89371B01
What does that mean? Has anyone else run into this?
Have you checked the device drivers on your Windows 8.1 machine? It could be a driver issue with your USB drivers on the computer.
I have also found that, once you get it connected, going into the Device Manager and deleting the device from there and forcing it to reload has helped me in the past.
Out of curiosity, try running "sfc /scannow" at a command prompt on the PC. It may require admin elevation. I've seen some bizarre behaviors due to dll problems in sxs in win 8.1, wondering if this could be caused by that kind of thing.
Couple of things to try:
Have you installed the GDR3 Emulators and tried running it on the 1080p emulator? It looks like the 929 is a 1920x1080 phone and will have the latest the latest updates installed. First place to check.
Based on this feedback in another stackoverflow question it looks like someone was having a similar issue and disabling Hyper-V resolved it for him. If you disable Hyper-V and it works, try re-enabling it and see if you still have the issue.
jmshapland had the correct answer for me, with the same issue. Disabling Hyper-V did the trick! No thanks to microsoft phone dev center forum posting on the issue..
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/wpapps/en-US/24bd3e48-e7b4-4d00-8d69-193f49989ce0/0x89731b01-error-during-deploy-to-device?forum=wpdevelop
Looks like I'll be disabling Hyper-V to test on my device, and re-enabling to work in emulator mode:
dism.exe /Online /Disable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V
and
dism.exe /Online /Enable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V /All
OK I was able to come up with a repeatable solution for the issue. Im HOPING that by posting this I dont tempt fate and have the phone not work again!
Here are the steps I did to resolve it (not sure if all of them are necessary):
On phone, disable wireless
Connect phone to laptop
Open device manager and click to show ALL HIDDEN DEVICES (including hidden devices is important)
Uninstall ALL phone-related devices (one in portable devices, several in USB
devices) anything that mentions lumia must go
Disconnect/reboot phone
Reboot laptop (there seems to be a process keeping the port open)
I had connectivity, then I lost it, then I re-gained it using these steps and it seems to be reliable for me (so far)
I just downloaded and installed Visual studio on my computer (windows 8.1) to start building windows 8 apps. The problem is when I try to run any application this error message shows up (the application from this error message is called Parcels.comStarter):
Error 1 Error : DEP0700 : Registration of the app failed. Deployment

I searched the entire internet but I didn't found a solution. I also did reinstall visual studio and I still have the problem.
Thanks in advance
Open the Services management console (services.msc) and stop the Windows Installer service.
In Windows Explorer, go to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\AppRepository\ and rename PackageRepository.edb to PackageRepository.edb.backup.
Back in the management console, restart the Windows Installer service.
Now run Visual Studio as an administrator and open your project.
I was having this exact same problem, and the solution for me was to unlink my Windows account from my Microsoft account.
There are a couple of things to try.
Run WSReset (press [Win] then type wsreset)
Delete the metastore and remotemetastore folder here: C:\Users\%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\SettingSync where %userprofile% is your username. (I suggest just renaming them to metastore.old and remotemetastore.old)
Make sure that there are no staged packages for the app in question.
If you re-deployed an app that was already installed by some other user, then you would get a deployment error. This should wear off if you change the identity in your package.appxmanifest fie.
You should try an OS refresh. You should not lose your apps and settings.
After that re-link your windows account to microsoft account.
If that doesnt work...The problem may be that visual studio is not able to delete the application data in local folder. So when you go in the location C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Packages you will find application data of app installed in your computer, now you need to find your app's application data and delete the folder. The folder name is the same as the package family name which you can see in your solution.
now again open the solution and rebuild and your app will run. (hopefully)
close visual studio and simulator before deleting the folder.
make sure that your account is set as administrator.
I had the same problem with visual studio running under Parallels VM. The solution was to copy the project from a cloud based directory to a local directory.
I am getting the following error when starting Visual Studio 2012 as unprivileged user:
An error has occurred while trying to access the log file. Logging may not function properly.
A casual web search showed that the issue used to exist with VMware 6 beta, back in 2006. I also found one other user who experiences the same in a more recent VS version (2008) and it started only recently.
The title of the message box indicates that this comes from VMware. I have VMware 9 Workstation installed. The problem could be related to system updates or the update 2012.2 CTP and hasn't gone with the final 2012.2 update package.
The question:
How can I get rid of the error without actually disabling the VMDebugger add-in?
Temporary workaround:
There is a workaround, disabling VMDebugger in the "Add-in Manager". However, it even seems that unprivileged users are unable to successfully disable it. I had to start VS as admin (I am using SuRun for the purpose) to disable it and the error not reappearing upon next start of the IDE.
I had the exact same problem, this is how I solved it.
I monitored devenv.exe using procmon to find the log path, on my computer it was: %TEMP%\vmware-username
I checked the permissions on the log directory, and discovered that my user had no access - neither read nor write! I gave myself full access and deleted the old log files. That solved it for me.
I think this happened because UAC was disabled when I installed VS and VMware.
In Visual Studio, go to the menubar to VMWARE / About VMWare Virtual Debugger; the Debugger log file will be listed there, e.g. C:\Users\Phil\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware-Phil\vmware-vsid-1.log
Give your user full access to that file.
(This solution was for Visual Studio 2013, VMware Workstation 11.1.2, Windows 8.1.)
The fastest and easiest way to solve is...
1. Locate the folder %temp%\vmware-{username}
2. Delete this folder. The folder will be created by opening the Visual Studio.
Note: You need to open the Visual Studio without admin rights to resolve the issue!
Background: Mostly this happens if you use the VMware debugger plugin the first time under admin rights (because your app may need this right to run properly). This creates the folder under admin rights with the admin permissions. Everytime you open the Visual Studio with admin rights, you have no problems.
Examples
Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\vmware-<username>-<PID>.log
Linux: /tmp/vmware-<username>/ui-<PID>.log

Windows 7, VS2012-Update1, x64.
If i start e new MVC-project, and add the Azure project to it. I can't debug it locally in the azure emulator.
The error:
Operation taking longer than expected
A 64-bit debugging operation is
taking longer than expected. This may be caused by incompatibilities
with 3rd party networking softwar. See help for troubleshooting these issues.
When i Terminate that message (twice):
Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio
There was en error attaching the debugger t the role intances
'deployment18(18).mvctest.Azure.Website_IN_0' with prces Id:'8752'.
Unable to attach. The Microsoft Visual Studio remote debugging monitor
has been closed on the remote machine.
The first message, I already found that if you change your website target to x86 that this can solve the problem. (this solved a problem for debugging unit-tests)
But if I change it to x86, the nex message pops up:
Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio
Cannot start debugging. The role was built for a platform incompatible with the windows azure compute emulator. On this system the compute emulator supports anyCPU and x64.
If i start without debugging (not x86), the windows emulator starts, and the website opens.
Is there a solution to solve this that we can debug x64 websites on the azure emulator?
Thanks.
Problem solved:
The issue was, that oour normal account didnt had admin privileges, and that we had to use an other admin user his credentials to run it in admin mode.
If i logged on with that admin user and started everything, that user couldn't also load the azure emulator.
Every co-developer had the same issue.
But when the normal account had back the admin privileges, the emulator started normally.
So i assume that there was something missing for those admin account (what i don't know)
Ensure that the remote debugging service and the machine debug manager (for x64) are properly installed and running (services in Automatic, especially not disabled).
You can also try to download and reinstall the remote debugging tools following instructions here
Even if it is on the same machine, chances are that debugging for the emulator goes through the remote debugging path
Been googleing this for a while now and it looks like the problem is connected to network drivers installed on windows. Do you have a VPN installed? Uninstall it and try again.
Otherwise it could be some of the network card drivers. Same here, uninstall and try again.
Some people have solved this by upgrading visual studio.
I'm having trouble when booting up the Windows Phone 8 emulator. I'm seeing the following message
http://i.stack.imgur.com/bHqGT.png
I followed the guide on the Windows Phone Emulator troubleshooting site (it's halfway down the page) and it doesn't work. I have administrator access to my computer. I do not see a Local Hyper-V administrators group in the Console Manager. Any ideas?
EDIT: To clarify, I can fire up the emulator, it's just that this pop-up comes up every time requesting me to add myself to the local hyper-v security group.
I Just Open visual studio as "Run as Administrator". and it resolved my problem.
I had the similar problem -
