I have a simple hello world application that target platform is set to "Windows Mobile 6 Classic Emulator", develop with Visual Studio 2008 with .NET frame 3.5. Compile and run test, everything working. Then deployed to Motorola MC75. When run, the application run fine but I cannot access the start menu, start button or the windows taskbar. I go to App Center to setup the application options not to hide start menu, still not see it. How do write an application that has taskbar, start button, and start menu display.
I actually have MC75 siting here next to me. You should be able to see the windows logo on top Left of your Application. Clicking that will minimize your app showing you the "desktop".

I have a Visual Studio project with two start-up applications: a UWP and a console app. In the UWP I launch the Main Page in full-screen mode with
ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchWindowingMode = ApplicationViewWindowingMode.FullScreen;
In the App.xaml.cs file. I then launch external applications in Program.cs by creating new processes and setting their filename to the .exe I want to launch. However, when I do this the UWP Main Page goes into full screen but I can't see the external applications. How to I make the external apps launch in front of the main page so that I can see them right away when I run the project?
How to I make the external apps launch in front of the main page so that I can see them right away when I run the project?
For this scenario, you could minimize UWP programmatically after external apps launched, the app will switch to front automatically.
IList<AppDiagnosticInfo> infos = await AppDiagnosticInfo.RequestInfoForAppAsync();
IList<AppResourceGroupInfo> resourceInfos = infos[0].GetResourceGroups();
await resourceInfos[0].StartSuspendAsync();
Please note you need make sure the app's mini version is Windows 10 update 1803 (build 17134).
I'm trying to solve a problem related to run an UWP app on top at startup (with Winodws 10).
I already put the app in the autorun applications but it always runs in background (the application is opened and if I click on the icon in the application bar I can see it). Unfortunately, I would like that it runs automatically on top.
How can I solve it?
#Xavier Xie We are also facing the same problem, what we are trying to build is a Windows 10 IoT machine that displays latest contents in fullscreen from a server automatically whenever the machine is started up / restart. Tried with StartupTask but it only brings up the App minimized / suspended at Windows startup.
The only way workaround for now is to drag a shortcut link of the installed UWP App into the startup folder. (type "shell:startup" in Explorer) Not as elegant and automatic but it works.
Icon is not being displayed in Share menu next to my app name. But its displayed correctly in icon
I have added icons to all the options in visual studio
The assets you are using are right. At first, I didn't see any problem when I used RTM OS version (Version 1511, OS Build 10586.494). However, from your screenshot, it seems you are using Insider Preview Build. So I tested it again on Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14393 and I can reproduce your issue.
Actually, your app icon is not invisible. It seems that System has cached the app icon used in Share menu when your app is deployed for the first time. After this, even we reset the app icon and redeploy the app, the icon in Share menu still won't change. I guess you've run your app with the default assets before you set your own assets. So in Share menu, it still use the default icon, but in Start panel, it is correct. You can created a new project with your own assets and then run this new project, you icon should be able to display in Share menu correctly.
This issue seems only affect Insider Preview Build. For Insider Preview issues, please feel free to share feedbacks with Microsoft. You can report this issue with Windows Feedback app. Your feedback has made Windows better!
All Logos Related to UWP are stored in Package.appxmanifest. Edit it using an xml editor. See if there is any image that is still a default icon.
I'm trying to develop a multitouch application using Surface 2.0 SDK, so I've installed its sample applications.
I opened the solution in Visual Studio 2010 ultimate, but I noticed that the debug starts, but it seems like to be in a without exit loop or waiting for something.
Example:
I start the project named ControlsBox, I wait for one/two minutes, and everytime that I press pause the application is in:
System.Windows.Input.PenThreadWorker.GetTabletInfoHelper
I'm developing on a non-touch pc with Windows 7 Pro.
Looking in processes I noticed that if I stop wisptis.exe the application finally run.
Any suggestions?
I'm trying to build an android application in C# using Visual Studio with Xamarin for visual studio(included). With the basic installation, I tired to create a basic "hello world" program. Successfully built the project, selected MonoForAndroid_API_10 and tried start Debugging.
It shows pop-up as your google emulators are slow --> discarded this pop-up -- I was expecting my output as a blank screen with hello world text at center and nothing more than this. But, the Emulator shows the output as a mobile application (with a lock screen and built-in apps), not the one I was expecting.
I anticipate like if I'm missing to enable MonoForAndroid_API_14 and later versions.
I couldn't information regarding how to enable MonoForAndroid_API_14. I installed all the packages using the Android SDK tools. But couldn't get the emulators to execute my project.

When you run the emulator, it starts Android like a normal physical Android device. Your app is then deployed by the Xamarin Runtime and you can access it like any other Android app from your device's main menu. Scroll down the menu and behold your installed app right there.
