Windows Mobile/Embedded Device Emulator on Windows 8

We design and develop applications that run on Windows Mobile and Windows Embedded, as this is the operating system that comes on most industrial bar code scanners right now.

Give that, we often use the Windows Mobile Device Emulator to simulate our software and give customer demonstrations. With Windows 8 being released, it seems that the Windows Mobile Device Center no longer works. This component was required to "Cradle" the device to get a network connection.

Is there a way to get the Windows Mobile/Embedded emulator to work on Windows 8?

You need to uninstall Windows Mobile Device Centerand to install the most recent one (dec 2012).

Go to the Microsoft web and download Windows Mobile Device Center for Vista (32 or 64 bits according your hardware). There is not option for Windows 8, but the version for Vista works perfectly in Windows 8.
