Get Windows Phone emulator working with VMware

Here’s a guide I followed to get the Windows Phone emulator working with VMware.

(I’m using VMware Fusion 6.0.4)

I didn’t follow the whole guide since I already had a Windows 8 VM set up. I just scrolled down and followed the steps of modifying the VMX file and making sure Hyper-V was activated in Windows.

Hi, I’m not sure if you’re sharing the guide that worked for you or asking how to make the emulator work, so I’m replying just in case of the latter one :slight_smile: I’m using VM Ware and I’m able to run nested WP emulator. I followed this guide:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj945426.aspx.

Just sharing. I got it to work with the guide I posted.

Followed the instructions in the Fusion link and still getting the emulator error “Windows Phone Emulator is unable to verify that the viral machine is running” any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Thanks guys. I also use VMWare and that info arrives at great time.
