Do not see Windows Phone 8 Emulator from Visual St

问题:

After installing Visual Studio 2012 express for Windows Phone 8 on my machine along with the SDK I notice that I do not have the option to Debug to a Windows Phone 8 Emulator ?

Any specific workaround or fixes to resolve this would be helpful?

回答1:

My Bad, the PC I am using does not support Hardware Virtualization.

I installed multiple times and finally noticed this message at Launch time.

This Computer does not support hardware virtualization, which means Windows Phone Emulator 8.0 can't run on this PC.

If others run into this, here is what I found out.

My Intel Core 2 Duo T9550, don't support SLAT, which is needed to enable Hyper-V, which is again needed to run the WP8 emulator...sigh...

You can run this Coreinfo tool to see what your CPU supports. Follow the guidance here:

The Windows Phone 7.1 SDK emulator works fine on my machine btw.

The Windows Phone 8 Emulator runs in Hyper-V. Hyper-V requires a processor that supports SLAT (Second Level Address Translation).

List of SLALT (EPT) Intel CPUs: http://ark.intel.com/Products/VirtualizationTechnology

So any Core2Duo does not Support Hyper-V :/
