How to: Use Folder Sharing to Emulate a Storage Card

Emulators now support simulated storage cards by means of folder sharing. When a folder is shared to the emulator, it appears as a storage card and the emulator responds as if it were a real device. You can also stop folder sharing when you no longer want to work with an emulated storage card.

To activate folder sharing

  1. In the emulator, click the Emulator menu.
  2. Click Folder Sharing.
  3. Click Share this folder and provide a valid folder path in the text box. You can also click the ... button to make the Browse to Folder dialog box appear.
  4. Click OK.

To stop folder sharing

  1. In the emulator, click the Emulator menu.
  2. Click Folder Sharing.
  3. Click Do not share a folder.
