How do I attach to an app running inside the Windows Phone emulator?

I'm trying to debug an app running inside the windows phone 7 emulator, but I can't connect to it from visual studio - Attach to Process -> selecting Windows Phone 7 Emulator transport displays an error:

"Unable to connect to 'Windows Phone 7 Emulator'. Not implemented"

What am I missing?

What are the good features of the Windows Phone emulator?

It provides a virtualized environment in which you can debug and test Windows Phone apps without a physical device. It also provides an isolated environment for application prototypes.

How do I find my emulator on Windows 10?

The Windows 10 SDK and emulator can be installed as part of the Visual Studio installation. See the Visual Studio download page. You can also install the Microsoft Emulator for Windows 10 Mobile using the Microsoft Emulator setup.

As a workaround:

  • open the solution configuration manager
  • next to build is a deploy column, uncheck your project
  • press F5

This will launch the app that is already on the device without overwriting it (and deleting its storage).
