How to go to lock screen windows 8 simulator?


I'm trying to develop a small application that uses the lock screen notification.

I'm running the Windows 8 Simulator and I'm trying to go to the lock screen with no success.

Help anybody?


Solution

  • Unfortunately, the lock screen and notifications APIs (toast, tile, and badge) do not work in the Windows 8 Simulator. To test and debug, use "Local Machine" as the target.
