Whenever I'm trying to debug and run the application using Android Emulator from visual studio 2015 getting some below error. So help me on this, I'm very tried from this error.

The emulator is unable to connect to the device operating system:

Couldn't auto-detect the guest system IP address.

What is IP address of emulator Android?

Also note that the address 127.0. 0.1 on your development machine corresponds to the emulator's own loopback interface. If you want to access services running on your development machine loopback interface (a.k.a. 127.0. 0.1 on your machine), you should use the special address 10.0.

How do I enable Android emulator in Visual Studio?

Just open up the Visual Studio Emulator for Android entry in your Start Menu, hit play, and the emulator is ready to debug from any IDE. Download the standalone emulator today!

Two things need to be checked:

  1. VS2015 installed components.

  1. More importantly make sure that vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch) is enabled in Network Connections.

To fix this I:

  • opened Hyper-V Manager
  • Went to Virtual Switch Manager on the Right hand pane
  • Deleted all Virtual Switches
  • Then opened Visual Studio Emulator
  • Deleted all Android Emulators
  • Uninstalled / Reinstalled Android Emulator for Visual Studio
  • Openened Reinstalled Visual Studio Emulator
  • Downloaded an Emulator and Ran and it worked again
