Windows 10 Mobile emulator fatal error during installation


I am attempting to install the Windows 10 mobile emulators for visual studio, but the installer crashes every time. I have not been able to determine the cause. The installed just informs me of a fatal error during installation and then halts. Does anyone know what I need to do in order to get the installer to work?

My log file is here: Windows 10 Mobile Install Log

Thanks for your help!


Solution

  • In the log I see the error code -2146498548 while trying to activate Hyper-V:

    Dism.exe /online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V /All /NoRestart exited with code = -2146498548
    Hyper-V feature status: Failed to Enable

    which means

    CBS_E_UNKNOWN_UPDATE - named update not present in package

    Looks like you use the Windows 10 Home Edition, which doesn't include Hyper-V.
