I am trying my hands on Windows Azure Mobile Services. My environment is Visual Studio 2010. Azure SDK is installed. And operating system is Windows 7.
I have created a Windows Azure Mobile Services and also created the sample database and the table as instructed while creating the service.
On the other hand I have installed Mobile SDK on my Visual Studio 2010. The instructions from the Azure site says, "add a reference to the "Windows Azure Mobile Services Client" extension"
When I try to add the reference to my project inside the Visual Studio, I do not find any package by name Windows Azure Mobile Services Client or anything as such. Can some one please help me by letting me know the path where the dll is? Or if there is anything I have missed while trying to add the reference.
Thanks
If I'm not mistaken, Windows Azure Mobile Service SDK is not supported for Windows 7 and VS 2010. On Windows platform, You can only build mobile applications for Windows 8 (Windows Store Apps) using VS 2012.
Hope this helps.
To add to Gaurav's answer, Windows Azure Mobile Svcs does support Windows Phone 8 (in addition to Windows Store apps), but not Windows Phone 7. You can still retrieve data from WAMS from any client via a REST call though.

I have a Universal app built for Windows 8.1 using Visual studio 2015. (This was done before UWP, there are 2 separate projects for phones and others. But we are not actually using the phone version anymore)
The client wants to add OAuth 2.0 authentication with Windows Azure DS to this app. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/v1-protocols-oauth-code
I am bit worried, since this app is some what old, will there be any issues doing that? Will it be supported?
If supported will the code be the same as for doing this for a UWP app done using VS 2017 or 2019 or will there be changes.
Because we need to do the same for another UWP app built with VS2017 as well. So do you think we will be able to use the same code in both apps or will there be differences due to version differences?
Any guidance on this is really appreciated.
Thank you.
I need to publish my windows phone 8.1 silverlight application to the store.
I used Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate for developing the application.
But I could not find 'Associate App with the store' option in the project tab.
Lauch app certification kit is the only available option . How do I associate app with the store ?
Please help.!
Silverlight apps don't need to be manually associated with the store. The application ID, etc. will be set automatically on the xap when it is uploaded and signed.
For a Windows Runtime app the "Associate the app with the store" menu will copy the application ID, publisher ID, etc. locally into the appxmanifest.
Only universal phone app can be associated with the store to be able to bundle it with Windows Store app into one package. It's useless for silverlight apps.
You should select:
"Store" -> "Create app package" and follow the steps there.

I'm making a program for a Windows Surface Pro with Windows RT 8.1, but when I want to run the setup in it, it doesn't work. It says that the version of windows don't allows the application I'm trying to execute, but in Setup Wizard of Visual Studio 2012 I say that my application doesn't require any specific operating system. Which can be the solution
Thanks a lot.
You can't run Visual Studio on Windows RT.
I'm quoting a Microsoft employee here :
Only software written using the Windows Runtime (Metro style apps) can be used on Windows RT with the exception of Microsoft Office 2013 and the desktop version of Internet Explorer 10. Developers will not be able to create applications to run on Windows RT using the Win32 APIs
He answered that on a related topic in MSDN
I am looking to use Windows.System.Launcher in a Windows Form application. I am using Visual Studio Express 2012 on a Windows 7 machine and the application is .Net 4.5
I can't seem to find what reference to add. (What package) ?
Windows.System.Launcher is a Windows Store App API that is only available on Windows 8.
You should call Process.Start(url).
Windows.System.Launcher is a Windows Store app only feature, as can bee seen in the MSDN documentation:
Minimum supported client Windows 8 [Windows Store apps only]
Minimum supported server Windows Server 2012 [Windows Store apps only]

Here's Microsoft's documentation on it:

I know we are supposed to hyper link stuff, but Microsoft changes their links like I change shoes, so it is good to have the full text to search on... just in case!
Basically, you want to add another project to your solution, and this one will be your Setup project. There is a nice blog on it in How to create a windows mobile (Smart Device).Cab installer, if you can follow those steps.
