Hello Guys,

I am trying to debug my uwp application on xbox, but Visual Studio gives me the following error:

Error: Unable to connect to the Microsoft Visual Studio Remote Debugger named 'XBOX'. The Visual Studio 2022 Remote Debugger (MSVSMON.EXE) does not appear to be running on the remote computer.

thanks in advance, bye

    Thanks @Tianyu Sun-MSFT for answering,

    I checked ip, authentication, OS Version and firewall everything was ok but it still didn't deploy.

    After this I changed the architecture from x64 to ARM64 and again x64 and finally worked.

    The app had many many problems so I created a new fresh completely empty project. It didn't deploy untill I changed the architecture twice (x64 -> ARM64 -> x64) as before.

    I've no clue what's happening.

    Thanks again, bye
