如何在Windows XP上安装Windows Phone Developer Tools

由于需要开发Windows Embedded CE 6的程序，所以保留了一台XP的PC，但是官方的Windows Phone Developer Tools不支持Windows XP，在网上找了一个曲线救国的方法，成功在XP上安装上Windows Phone Developer Tools。
方法如下:
   1. Download the Windows Phone Developer Tools RTM
   2. Extract the contents of the setup package by running vm_web.exe /x and choosing a path to extract to
   3. Go to the folder you extracted to in step 2 and open the file baseline.dat in notepad
   4. Look for the section named [gencomp7788]
   5. Change the value InstallOnLHS from 1 to 0
   6. Change the value InstallOnWinXP from 1 to 0
   7. Save and close baseline.dat
   8. Run setup.exe /web from the folder you extracted to in step 2

注意，如果不是使用Windows 7和Vista，注意需要为相关系统安装相应版本的SP  
Windows XP Service Pack 3
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2
Windows Vista Service Pack 2
Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2
Windows Server 2008 R2

 

测试发现，Emulator运行时出错，其他工具没有问题。我想应该是DirectX和WDDM的问题，再查一下。 毕竟不是官方支持的工具，使用时有风险。
