I just pulled the 2010 ultimate from MSDN, and I see there's no "Smart Device" options anymore. Does anybody knows how to enable it, or how to install it?
Sincerely,
Yvan
According to various sources in the net Visual Studio 2010 doesn't support Windows Mobile 6.5 development (see here and here for example). Of course there might be an SDK available in the future. For now, you need to use Visual Studio 2008.
Now you can with windows phone SDK7.1 You just need Visual Studio 2010 SP1 and download the Windows Phone SDK 7.1 from here

I am interested to port one of my windows applications so that I can distribute my app in the Microsoft Store. Target platform will
be Windows 8.1 because I am not running Windows 10.
I am using Visual Studio Community 2017. I tried to follow this guide from Microsoft
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt203664.aspx
to create a Windows 8.1 Store app with Visual Studio but it seems that the described functionality is not available at
Visual Studio Community 2017. Also I cannot find any related Windows Store 8.1 Project Template at Visual Studio Community 2017.
So which is the latest available Visual Studio version which supports creating Windows 8.1. Store Apps?
Regards
Michael
Windows 8.1 Store app development is not available in Visual Studio 2017. You should use Visual Studio 2015 instead.
Since I cannt register Visual Express 2010 for Windows Phone anymore because Microsoft doesn't support it anymore, which Visual Studio I can do it. Is it still possible?
While I am opening my VS Express there is MessegeBox (You have to regiester it for free). When I open the link there is a sign" Page is not avaible anymore".
I have acces to DreamSpark because I am a student. I just want to finish my Windows Phone 7.1 project but now I dont know how to do it.
Anyone have an idea?
Why don't you just download the 2013 Community Edition and upgrade your project to Windows Phone 8.1 ?
Does anyone know how to develop for Windows Phone 7, with Visual Studio 2013 (thus without installing Visual Studio 2010) on Windows 8.1 RTM?
I've checked the WP8.0 box when I was installing Visual Studio 2013, but it does not provide me the 7.1 SDK which is needed for my solution.
It would be great if I could do it without installing Visual Studio 2010. :D
Thank you in advance :-)
The Windows Phone 8.0 SDK include the ability to create apps for 7.1 and 8.0 so there should be no need to install the 7.1 SDK.
HOWEVER
Developing apps for 7.x is not supported in Visual Studio 2013.
If you must target 7.x devices you'll need to use VS2010 or VS2012.
If you want o build for Windows Phone 7.x you should use Visual Studio 2012. You can install this AND Visual Studio 2013 on the same machine. The only thing you may not end up being able to do is having a single solution with all projects in that you can use in both versions of VS.
Currently, I use the Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone on my Windows 8 system. However, I can't find how to check out the SVN features, even if I install AnkshSVN. Does anybody have any solution?
Visual Studio Express editions do not support plugins, so AnhkSVN will not work. You can use any SVN client you wish from outside of Visual Studio.
I have Visual-studio 2010 prot and I am trying to create a Windows-mobile or Windows-CE project, but I don't see how to do it.
Can anyone help ?
No, Window Mobile development is not available in VS 2010. You must use VS 2008.
If you want to do Windows Phone 7, you can (and must) use VS 2010, but it is not the same as Windows Mobile (i.e. Smart Device) development on the Compact Framework.
Here's the official word: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/sa69he4t.aspx
For VS 2010 there is Visual Studio Phone. You can check VS 2010 Phone.
You can find there a lot more for windows phone development.
No, it is unsupported, you have to use Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008.
On Visual Studio 2010 you can target Windows Phone 7 applications: http://www.microsoft.com/express/phone/
You can go here and vote to have Microsoft add Compact Framework Support for Visual Studio 2010.
