Windows CE 7 connection error while develop my project in VS2008

I tried to create applicaton on Visual Studio 2008 (with sp1) for Windows CE7.

My earlier app is connect from VS2008 to CE5 and run on Windows CE5 devices.

But if i try to deploy project and choose "Windows CE Device", deploying screen

Project gives this error:

The bootstrap could not be loaded. Device Connectivity Component

But "Windows Mobile" connect from my OS (Windows 8) and i reach device directory at windows explorer.. So i dont have any connection problem this windows ce7 machine literally.

My problem in visual studio 2008.

Thanks in advice.

I had same exact problem today. Had to download the platform SDK from motorola\zebra. Then an new option showed up for my exact device.

considering that the only difference in your system stack is the device, probably it is something missing on the device itself. My guess is you are using ActiveSync as transport when your CE5 have support for it while your CE7 doesn't.

My suggestion is to use "TCP Connect Transport" with a fixed IP as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms228708%28VS.90%29.aspx

This is working for me.

Hope this helps
