Deploying UWP app to Windows 10 Mobile device fails

I'm trying to deploy a UWP app to a Lumia 640 running Windows 10.0.10572.0. My desktop is running Windows 10 Pro (non-beta) and Visual Studio Enterprise 2015. Both the desktop and phone are set to "Developer mode", and the phone's "Save Location" is set to "This Device".

When I create a new UWP app in VS and attempt to deploy it to the phone (ARM) I get the error:

Error : DEP4100 : The folder "C:\SharedData\PhoneTools\AppxLayouts\fd452efe-5984-4038-8a9f-0e07c53cc89fVS.Debug_ARM.Tom" could not be created. Access to the path 'C:\SharedData\PhoneTools\AppxLayouts\fd452efe-5984-4038-8a9f-0e07c53cc89fVS.Debug_ARM.Tom' is denied.

Has anyone been able to successfully deploy a UWP app to a phone and debug it?

Thanks! -Tom B.

Finally got a program to debug on my 950XL. It appears that having the 8.1 SDK on the machine and running the new Update choosing to update the 8.1 bit is the key.

Microsoft: please fix so that having the Windows 10 UWP by itself allows one to debug to a Windows 10 Mobile device!!!!!!!!

After upgrading the phone to the fast ring update that came out yesterday (Windows 10 Mobile 10.0.10581.0) I am now able to deploy and debug on it. Hooray!
