    (Resolved) Visual Studio 2005 and WM 6.1

    I am having trouble getting the 6.1 Emulator to show up in the Smart Device Project types in VS 2005. I have the emulator loaded and can run it independently but I cannot connect from VS.

    Is there some setting somewhere to make them work together?

    What problems are you seeing - does it not show up when you do a 'change platform'

    6.1 should work fine with VS2005

    I am not seeing the Mobile 6 project templates in VS (image below).

    Hey,

    Have you installed the SDK for the version that you are trying to use?

    The SDK also includes the emulators.

    Does it appear when you try 'change platform'?

    If not, as Gary suggests, have you loaded the SDK?

    The SDK is installed along with the images (Windows Mobile 6 SDK). And I can run the emulators for 6.x.

    What is the 'Change Platform'? I don't see anything that mentions platform.

    Well I got it. I tried reinstalling the SDK refresh and it said there was a prereq missing. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and then reinstalled the Mobile 6 SDK refresh and the 6.0 project type is now showing in VS.

    Thanks!
