Debug on device with WP 7.8 on Windows 8.1

I am a novice developer for the platform Windows Phone. I installed Windovs 8.1, I also have a HTC HD7 on WP 7.8. Q: I can't install Zune on Windows 8.1. How do I debug applications for the WP7 on device? They work only through the Zune...

P.S. Zune is installed,but crash bug on startup. I read that the program doesn't work in Windows RT. Is that true? There are no solutions?

You do not necessarily need Zune running to connect Visual Studio to your device, it just needs to be installed.

You can also use WPConnect.exe which is located in ...\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v7.1\Tools\WPConnect\x64\WPConnect.exe to establish a connection.

P.S.: Zune is working on Windows 8.1 for me. I also have a HTC HD7 with WP7.8
