How to fix: Surface Duo emulator will not start after the run.bat has been edited

My scenario

I downloaded the Surface Duo emulator and I edited the run.bat as it is described in the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dual-screen/android/use-emulator?tabs=windows.

My shell returned a lot of not understandable error messages. All paths were set correctly and all required Windows features were enabled.

My fix

Unfortunately I have no idea why this worked. Open the default run.bat and just remove the port parameter. This is the only change in which the VisualStudio-specific run.bat differs from the original file.

Yes. The orignal artificats/run.bat containts a shell command that includes a port parameter.

-ports 5575,5579

If you remove this parameter, the script seems be identical to the "for VisualStudio editited" one. It works for me.
