How to install Windows Phone 7 Developer Tools on Windows XP
on January 15th, 2011 at 1:18 pmI am still using Windows XP and didn’t want to upgrade to Windows 7 yet, so I had to find a way to install Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone on XP machine.
After some searches, I found this solution:
- Download the Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW from Microsoft Download Center
- Extract the downloaded package by running vm_web.exe /x
- Go to the folder of the extracted package & open the file baseline.dat in any text editor
- Look for the ‘gencomp7788’ section and change this two entries from 1 to 0:
- InstallOnLHS=0
- InstallOnWinXP=0
- Save the file baseline.dat
- Run setup.exe /web
Thank you so much!!!!
