I want to develop Windows 10 Mobile applications. I installed Visual Studio 2015 Community and I installed Qt 5.6 packages from Qt 5.5.1 MaintenanceTool (Image) and I installed Universal Windows packages from VS 2015, so I think Win SDK installed. Then I installed Windows 8 Phone packages from VS 2015. But Win 10 Mobile packages is disabled on the Qt Creator (Image). How can I develop Win 10 Mobile apps with Qt? Thanks.
Edit: Debugger not found: MSVC, win rt armv7, win rt 32 bit
You should install Visual Studio 2013 to develop Windows Phone applications. If you want to develop WindowsRT applications you can use Visual Studio 2015.
Look at the picture with packages. There is information which version you should use to develop specific applications.
You need to install the debugging tools for windows, which are only available through the Windows SDK. You can select only the debugging tools, and leave the rest of the SDK as it was.

I want to develop a C++ application, which will run natively on a Windows XP machine.
It uses the ASPI Drivers to communicate with external SCSI Devices.
The oldest Version on the Microsoft page seems to be VS 2012, which is probably too new.
Which version of Visual Studio do I need to install for coding and compiling natively on Win XP?
I routinely compile for Windows XP using Visual Studio 2017.
The secret is to install and select the "v141_xp" Platform Toolset in the project's configuration pages (Configuration Properties -> General -> Platform Toolset) as described in #drescherjm's link.
I also set the Windows SDK Version to 7.0, although I'm not sure if that's necessary.
I have Visual Studio 2015 Community edition installed with Windows Desktop development tools (languag - C++). Can I use it for creating Windows Phone 8 application with C++ language (especially with C++11/14 standard)? Which SDK\tools I have to install for this task or may be all required instruments are in Visual Studio 2015 Community package alredy?
Thank you for help.
P.S.: The "Visual Studio 2015 Platform Targeting and Compatibility" article, in the section "Visual Studio 2015 Support for Windows Universal, Windows Store, and Windows Phone App Development", says that Windows Phone 8 apps are supported by the Visual Studio 2015 but with footnotes "Supports migration of Windows Phone 8 projects to Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1.". So, I can't understand, does Visual Studio 2015 support the whole development cycle for Windows Phone 8 app or only migration to the Windows Phone 8.1?
UPDATE: I mean the Windows Runtime applications for Windows Phone 8 platform.
sure, you need to download windows phone 8/8.1 sdk from microsoft website
https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=35471 or from somewhere which provide standalone installer for this.
after this, just open up visual studio go to c++ the expand windows > windows phone
I installed Visual Studio 2017 RC, and in general I'm really impressed! One problem, however, is that I can't figure out the proper method of installing the Windows 10 Mobile Emulator. I have installed the Windows 10 SDK as well as the Emulator itself. My Programs and Features clearly shows these two items are installed:
. Windows 10 for Mobile Image - 10.0.14393.0
. Windows Software Development Kit - Windows 10.0.14393.33
I also have properly selected the Cordova tools during the installation of VS 2017 RC. I can create a new JavaScript project using Cordova and it looks to be correct in the Solution Explorer.
But when I launch Visual Studio 2017 RC and then inspect the Solution Platforms dropdown, it only has these options:
Android
iOS
Windows-ARM
Windows-x64
Windows-x86
Configuration Manager...
I do not see any option for Windows 10 Mobile.
What am I missing?
Nevermind.... Somehow I installed more stuff and then found what I am looking for by selecting Windows-X86, and then there are options for Mobile Emulator 10.0.14393.0 in various memory and screen configurations. Just keep clicking things until it works, I suppose... Seriously, probably my own fault. Moving on!
I just freshly installed Windows 8.1 and Visual Studio 2015 RC Community Edition.
The compilation of an existing c++ project failed, not finding <windows.h> for include. In order to fix that I installed Windows 8.1 SDK with no luck.
Looking into it my Project Settings for the "Win32" configuration says:
Why does VS2015 display Windows 10 as default target platform and why can't I change the value to Windows 8.1?
The installation of
Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Tools for Windows 10 (Technical Preview)
and
Windows Software Development Kit - Windows 10.0.10069
seems to be done by default during Visual Studio 2015 RC setup.
The optional selection of Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.0/8.1 Tools does not seem to install the respective Platform Toolsets properly alongside of the Windows X versions in order to be able to change that on the respective project settings page.
Uninstalling the above mentioned Tool- and SDK-Kits for Windows 10 made
Target Platform Windows
available in the Project Settings and I can choose Version 8.1 now.
Now <windows.h> is found again.
I had the same problem.
I changed the platform toolset to v140_xp, and closed VS2015. After opening VS2015 asked to install Windows XP C++ libraries, 225MB. After these steps my project was compiled successfully. Hope this helps you.
I have visual studio 2013 and 64x win 7 pc.
I want to create a windows phone app with a single button and textbox.
When I click file>new>project I cant see windows store in templates.
I couldnt find how to search online from tools>external tools.
Did you installed Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8.1?
The sdk contains the components needed to develop windows store apps.
If you are going to develop Windows phone 8.0 instead of 8.1, this XDA forum thread should help you. I haven't personally tried that because I am looking to develop Windows 8.1 in Win 7 x64.
You can also try to install the SDK 8.0 and 8.1 lite version by Arnold Vink. I tried the sdk 8.1 lite version with no luck but perhaps it will work for you.
You can check out my SO question on what I have done so far. Hope this helps.
