I am developing a database application in windows phone. I want to access the database stored in the device(or in emulator) in visual studio or any other explorer. For example, after deploying application on emulator and performing CRUD operation on emulator(or device) , I want to see the data of the database in server explorer or any other explorer. Is it possible? If Yes, can you provide a solution for it.?
Thanks.
If you're creating your database as a file in isolated storage then you can easily use Windows Phone Powers Tools to copy the file off the development phone / emulator and on to your PC for opening using whatever utility you'd like.
You can also use the Windows Phone Power Tools to copy a modified file back to the phone / emulator if you desire also.
Something I've done myself while testing my SQLite database for my own app.

I have some old windows 10 mobile phones, that I want to give a second life as a music device for my kids. Since I have Visual Studio 2019 Enterprise at my hands, I thought I try to create something myself.
Not I tried to create an UWP app and a Xamarin app and try to debug them on the phone (connected via USB, developer mode enabled, unlocked). But with both I get this error:
DEP6957: Failed to connect to device '127.0.0.1' using Universal
Authentication. Please verify the correct remote authentication mode
is specified in the project debug settings. COMException ... HRESULT:
0x8007274D) [0x8007274D]
The apps are still in their initial state after creating the project, no modifications done. The settings for debugging are set to: Debug, ARM, Device
I had some experience with an older Visual Studio version and windows phone 7, back then it just worked and all the documents I could google up suggest, while there are new ways, it should still work via USB.
If you plan to develop Windows 10 Mobile App, you need to use Visual Studio 2017 and make sure the target version of the app is below 14393.
Visual Studio 2019 no longer supports deploying UWP apps on mobile phones.
Best regards.
sometime i must reboot service something like windowsphone ipoverusb
As part of an internship project, I am looking to deploy an application on PC (Windows 10) as well as on mobile digital media such as tablets.
I have some programming knowledge in VB.Net and have the Visual Basic 2010 Express IDE. Is a Windows Forms Application executable on Windows 10 tablets? If yes, are there compatibility issues (e.g. tactile events)? I am looking for the most suitable equipment for daily use for production monitoring operations. All the devices must have access to the same database to draw up daily reports from a master tool (a PC).
Is a Windows Forms Application executable on Windows 10 tablets?
Yes, Windows 10 tablets are able to run traditional Win32/.NET desktop applications. Please refer to the following article for more information about this: https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-10-arm-not-windows-rt.
As mentioned in the comments, you should be aware of the fact that tablet users may excpect a more touch friendly UI compared to what a traditional Windows Forms application may offer by default though.
If you intend to target only Windows 10+, you might want to to take a look at the Universal Windows Platform (UWP).
Recently Microsoft announced ability to create universal applications in Visual Studio 2013. Is there any easy way to convert existing Windows Phone 8 application into universal or i have to create new project and properly move the code manually?
It is not about converting a project type or moving code. You will have to port your app from one runtime to another. This is because the Universal project templates use the Windows Runtime APIs where as your existing Windows Phone 8 application uses the Silverlight APIs.
Windows Phone Store apps use the same app model and UI framework as Windows Store apps do, and they use the Windows versions of common features such as background tasks. You will still be able to reuse a lot of your existing code, but these differences mean that it really is a porting exercise, more than just an update, to move a Windows Phone 8 to the new app model.

There are some features that are available in Windows Phone 8 for which there is no Windows Phone Store (Universal apps) equivalent. See more here.
The right-menu option is "Add Windows 8.1...". That will add Windows 8.1 support and add a Shared section to both projects so you can share code between then.
In your solution, right click your Windows Phone application and select "Add Windows 8.1..." and follow the prompts.
I ported my windows phone7 application to windows 8(just copy paste the xaml and c# code in visual studio 2012->new->project->WPFApplication) and made changes in UI sizes.The problem is the .exe file(after building wpf application) runs only in the system with .NET framework installed.I want to run my application in all system running windows(7(32/64),xp,vista).I am newbie to windows application basically wp7 developer.Thank u.
If you really want to port a windos phone 7 app to windows 8, You should go through the following resources. They provide most of the information.

WPF is a part of the .NET framework, so you can't write a WPF application that can run without the framework on the machine.
If you want to create a binary that run on the classic windows runtime you can't use WPF/C#/VB etc.
Best thing if you want to port your Windows Phone app to Windows 8 is to create a Microsoft Store app, File > New Project > Blank App in VS2012. The app won't run on anything except Windows 8 but the Microsoft Store for Windows 8 is probably the best place to have your app if it's ported from Windows Phone.
Migrating application to WP7 is not that easy as it sounds. There is lot of different APIs and also limited async/await in WP7 when using this extension.
I would probably recommend starting with this MSDN article. It describes basic problems and challenges and also contains useful namespace and API mapping:
Migrate/port a Windows Phone 7 app to a Windows Store app
I have built an os design (and its bsp) in Visual Studio. I need to know how to get started with writing applications for the os by writing a simple application that will run in the os created (probably in an emulator, I still don't have the Evaluation module for the device). I have Visual Studio 2005 and Windows embedded C.E. 6.0 installed.
Some blogs described how to create the application in eMbedded Visual C++. Will I have to install this apart from Visual Studio to get started?
If you built an image from an OSDesign for a specific device you cannot run it in the emulator. The emulator has it's own sepcific BSP based on which you need to create an OSdesign.
To develop an application for your osdesgin of choice open VS2005 create a new project of type Visual C++-> Smart Device and choose the type you want. Alternatively, you can create a C# application for smart devices that will run on any device that includes the Compact Framework component in the OSDesign or has it installed on the device.
You do not need additional software other than VS2005.
You can download a package from this vendor. It includes demo applications for Windows CE6 (for that device). It also includes a document of how to create a new application for the device. You can use the instructions to create an applcation to your own device.
To test your application as it will perform on the image you built, you will need a physical device.
Update: During the New Project wizard you will be asked to choose the designated platform (native projcets at least) and you will need to choose from a list of SDKs. The list shows the installed SDKs on your desktop machine. You can create your own SDK, but in order ofr it to show in that list you need to install it on the Machine. In Windows CE the SDKs are installed to: C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce600
