My Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise doesn't launch the emulator, however I am able to run it manually from the Hyper-V Manager. When run it from the VS after ~7-8 mins I get the following error:

"Windows Phone Emulator is unable to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: The phone did not respond to the connect request.

Some functionality might be disabled"

What might cause this problem? I am running Windows 8.1 on Fujitsu LIFEBOOK E744


My case is slightly different than suggested duplicate as my notebook is in a corporate network and I am not able to turn off firewall nor stop any network monitoring software.

  • have you checked the Virtual Switch Manager settings as suggested in the linked answer? – stuartd Sep 03 '15 at 15:10
  • I did. Changed to private, rebooted and then changed to internal. Still the same – Nadarian Sep 03 '15 at 15:18
  • The solution for me was to run Control Panel -> Programs and features, select Windows Phone 8.1 Emulators - ENU, click Change and then Repair – Nadarian Sep 04 '15 at 13:12
