Answer 1

I also got this error message when I ran my app with the phone emulator:

the windows phone emulator wasn't able to connect to the windows phone operating system : The phone didn't respond to the connect request . some functionality may be disabled.

This is what I did, which worked perfectly for me:

First make sure you have closed your Visual Studio and the phone emulator, then

• Open Hyper-V Manager
• Left column, left click on your computer name
• Select Virtual Switch Manager
• Select the Windows Phone Emulator Switch
• Choose Private Network and Click Apply

Then the trick is to restart your system and go through the same step above, but this time:

• Choose Internal Network and Click Apply

Note : You'll see some Loading in progress,that's all , then start your phone Emulator Again

Answer 2

I had the same problem and solved it by disabling firewall (AVG). Try this.

Answer 3

do you have installed symantec? If so thats the issue. i am able to run only after disabling symantec. so you may choose to do so.
