Unable to launch the Surface DUO Emulator with Visual Studio
- Mar 20, 2020
Sivaprasad. G if you see the Surface Duo emulator, check the port showing in the title bar (it will say something like "Android Emulator - <build>:5556").
That should match the post listed by adb devices, even though the rest of the name may not match exactly. I've attached a screenshot of how it looks for me.
I'll add that whenever I use the Visual Studio batch file (run_vs.bat), I get a low-numbered port (like 5554 or 5556). I notice in your list it's 5578. Check that your batch file does not specify the -ports parameter (and also confirm the ANDROID_SDK_LOCATION is the one in C:\Program Files (x86\Android\android-sdk).

Craig_Dunn , Thank you so much for your valuable time and support , I successfully connect the emulator to Visual studio. For me, It took around 10 minutes to appear the emulator option in visual studio at first time. Thank you so much tggmbi and tscholze for your valuable suggestion ,
