I've got:

  • Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro (64bit, Russian language) on a laptop
  • 6GB RAM
  • Core i5 with Hyper-V support
  • Hyper-V enabled in BIOS and I can create virtual machines through Hyper-V manager
  • Visual Studio 2013 (Update 2/Russian language)

And I can't install Windows Phone 8.1 emulator. I checked Hyper-V settings by CoreInfo and I've got "Hypervisor is present (-)". I tried Damir tip (http://developers.de/blogs/damir_dobric/archive/2012/10/14/windows8-error-hypervisor-is-not-running.aspx), but in bcdedit I've got hypervisorlaunchtype set to auto.

Does anyone know, what also I should check except the checklist (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/ff626524.aspx)?

I've already used Windows Phone 8.0 emulator on my laptop about year ago. Since that time I changed only HDD (to hybrid HDD) and reinstalled everything.

Error message from installer.

Do you get an error message? – Olivier Payen
@OlivierPayen, yes. Something like 'Your computer doesn't support Windows Phone emulator for which you need a 64bit Windows 8.1 Pro and a computer with Hyper-V support. See additional information here go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=394063'. I added error message to my question. – Mark Twain
