How do I update Windows 10 IoT Core without re-flashing SD card?

After setting up Windows 10 IoT Core on Raspberry Pi 2 and getting all comfortable with it, along comes Visual Studio 2015 with the message: "Please upgrade your remote debugger to match Visual Studio." which apparently means repeating the entire installation (flash from scratch) as described here http://ms-iot.github.io/content/en-US/win10/SetupRPI.htm
Is a "reinstall from scratch" the only way to currently update the Windows 10 IoT Core ? What about something like apt-get update?
With the release of Windows 10 IoT Core build 10586, you can update Windows IoT over the Internet just like we do in Windows.
To update Windows IoT, follow the steps:
Connect your Raspberry Pi 2's Ethernet to the Internet (i.e. with Internet Router or Modem).
Connect your computer/tablet to the same network on which Raspberry Pi 2 is connected.
Open Windows IoT's Web-management portal.
Login to the Web-management portal.
From the left black-panel 'UTILITIES', click 'Windows Update'.
Finally, to update Windows 10 IoT Core, click on 'Check for updates' button and wait for the magic.
Newer to web management portal?

How do I add the Server Hyper-V Emulator 8.1 to my existing project?

I have Windows Server R2 DataCenter w/Hyper-V running, installed the SDK's for Windows Phone development and the Windows Phone Emulator 8.1 U1 is running. On my Windows 8.1 I use Visual Studio 2013 Community for my Universal App development and its also installed on the server.
As of now I have not made any settings changes on the server, so everything is at its default. I already had a working Universal App project running before deciding to use my server (due to I broke my Windows Phone device the other day) for testing my Window Phone app.
Now I have to do all my Windows Phone development on the Server after making modifications and addition to my Windows App on my development machine (NOTE: Windows 8.1 doesn't have a VT cpu).
So my question is, is it possible to add the Windows Emulator 8.1 U1 to my Windows 8.1 project from the Server? This way I don't to keep going to the Server to test the Windows Phone app.
Updated 4-1-2015: additional information and better explanation of question.
Thanks!...
As I understand, you'd like to be able to do the following:
You have a machine X for development, which you can't install emulators on
You have a server Y w/ Phone emulator running
You want to deploy your app directly from machine X to server Y
Unfortunately, remote debugging/deployment to an emulator hosted on a different machine is not supported by VS, at least as far as I'm aware. :(
One thing you could try is using Team Foundation Build to automatically build and deploy your app on your R2 server. You could implement it such that anytime you checked code in, it would be available for ad-hoc testing on your server a few minutes later. This would still mean using Remote Desktop to use the remote emulator, but it would automate the work of getting your changes over to the server. That way you wouldn't have to develop directly on the server.

How to fix 'Managed SQL Server Installer has stopped working'

I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2008. I have done all the process till the Installation correctly. However, the installer displays the message "Managed SQL Server Installer has stopped working".
No online Solution has been provided yet....
Anyone sorted this problem before?
This is usually a problem with your installation of .NET framework. E.g:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/34671131-a095-4068-b4d8-ab5ef6f5b8cc/managed-sql-server-installer-has-stopped-working
Check that your installations are all in working order by using the tools on this site:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2008/10/13/8999004.aspx
You may have to re-install any or all of your .NET framework versions.
Instead of trying several methods that have not been approved, it is better to repair the MSSQL Server installation. On the other hand, there is some other issues that can be encountered during the repair process i.e. Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 as shown below.
In this case, if you have trouble during .NET Framework installation, you can install it by following the steps below (requires Windows 8, 8.1 or 10) setup disc or ISO file):
1) First you'll need to copy Windows 8 setup files to your hard disk. If you have Windows 8 setup ISO copied in your system, you can mount it by right-click on it and select "Mount" option or you can extract its content using 7-Zip.
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content, its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can access its content.
2) Now open Command Prompt as Administrator as mentioned here and then provide following command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:F:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Here "F:" represents the CD/DVD drive letter in your system which contains Windows 8 setup disc. Replace it with the correct drive letter according to your system.
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a directory, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.
3) As soon as you execute the above mentioned command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system and it'll not require Internet connection.
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.
4) That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.
For more information have a look at How to Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Offline in Windows 8 and Later without Internet Connection?. Hope this helps...

how to run crystal reports in ubuntu linux

This thread is an extension of the below thread.
Can't connect to MySQL for .NET application deployed in Wine using Ubuntu
The WineHQ db claims that it will run. However, if you do intend to target the Linux and Windows platforms, I would suggest a more cross platform compatible library.
I got the answer by my own after doing a small research.
The error was due the licensing problem of visual studio .net 2005. The following packages had to be configured in Merge Reports (i.e C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules)
Crystal_Managed2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003_enu.msm
Crystal_regwiz2003.msm
And then we need to enter the license key while deploying the application correctly.
Later the following packages would be installed automatically when we run the deployed .net application in ubuntu linux
