I just installed it on my windows 8. It's NOT running on a VM but is running at a macbook with bootcamp. When I try to emulate my app, I get this first error:
But then I click "Retry" and give the permission, so it runs normally.
But then, when the windows phone window appears, I get a "loading" screen and then this error appears:
Just for better tagging the post I will write the error: "something happened while creating a switch: Xde couldn't find an IPv4 adress for the host machine"
You must enable virtualization in BIOS and go to Control Panel->Programs->Turn Windows features on or off and choose Hyper-V.
I had this problem.
1- Open the Control Panel.
2- Then programs.
3- Turn Windows features on or off.
4- Further selection for hyper-v.
5- Restart the computer.
6- Repeat the previous steps but put the selection on hyper-v.
7- Restart the computer.
Enjoy ^_^
Not sure if you got to the solution, but I just had the same situation. It turns out that older VPN clients may have compatibility problems with Windows 8. I solved the issue by uninstalling VPN client (and also making sure Hyper-V was enabled).
