Windows 10 Mobile Error: DEP6200

Question

I am trying to deploy a Windows 10 app to a Lumia 635 running 10.0.10586.11 and I get this error:

Error : DEP6100 : The following unexpected error occurred during bootstrapping stage 'Connecting to the device 'DEVICE GUID'.': SEHException - External component has thrown an exception.

Error : DEP6200 : Bootstrapping 'Device' failed. Device cannot be found. The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available.

Unlike most, I am capable of deploying to an Emulator, just not the physical device. Based on this question: Error : DEP6200 : Bootstrapping 'Device' failed. Device cannot be found

I verified that Windows Phone 8.1 is installed, and ensured that the latest SDK is installed, so neither of those were solutions. I am able to deploy to physical hardware for desktop/tablet mode, but no go on the Lumia 635.

Answer 1

Installing the latest mobile emulator preview fixed the deployment issue for me.
