I have the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK on my dev pc installed together with VS 2013. I need to open some WP 8.0 projects in VS 2013, but I can't do that without having WP 8.0 SDK installed.
However, when I try to install it from the local ISO, I have the following installation error:
** Setup Blocked **
The product version that you are trying to set up is earlier than the version already installed on this computer.
Do I need to remove the WP 8.1 SDK just to install WP 8.0 SDK and then install WP 8.1 SDK again? Is this the only way, and will it really help?
It seems I need to install the older SDK as I cannot launch my WP 8.0 projects because of this error I get when I open them:
Modify the VS2013 install in "Program and Features" and select "Windows Phone 8.0 SDK".
Since the 8.1 came up with the Update 2 for Visual Studio, you should be able to open a WP8 application using VS 2013 8.1 update.

If I create a new UWP (Windows Universal App) and try to deploy it to any mobile emulator is fails with
"There were deployment errors. Continue?"
Investigating the output window and error list there is absolutely nothing there.
I can deploy the application when the target is Local Machine.
Hyper V has no virtual machines registered.
Any ideas?
the information you get "Hyper V has no virtual machines registered" suggest that your Hyper-V is disabled.
Try to type in coreinfo-v.exe in your cmd to find out.
Make sure that your processor supports Virtualization otherwise there is nothing you can do.:(
If you follow this link you will find quite a lot of information how to enable Hyper-V in your computer.
It's an article for Windows phone emulator 8.1 but still quite useful.

The error message is self-explanatory, you need a 64bit OS (x64) but you are running a 32bit one (x86).
I think that the reason why this happens is because your VS2013 version is x86 and you downloaded the x64 version of WP8 SDK.
Try the following instead of downloading the SDK and manually installing it.
Right-Click on Start Button
Open Programs and Features.
Find Microsoft Visual Studio 2013.
Click on it and Click Change.
Select Modify.
Choose the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK from there and click Update.
I installed the last version of visual studio to target windows phone 8.1 OS. After the installation I figured out that the 8.1 OS was not yet released and I couldn't deploy my application on my device. Can I target the windows phone 8.0 version when building the application?
Yes you can. Go to your project properties and there on your application tab, you can select the target OS.
Select This Project Template & It will prompt you to select your targeting Windows Phone OS
But Once you have targeted 8.1 you can't deploy on a 8.0 device or emulator.
I am trying to install the SP2013 Phone SDK on my desktop computer (Win 8.1, 64bit) running Visual Studio 2013. VS2013 comes prepackaged with the Windows Phone 8 SDK, but the SP2013 Phone SDK installer fails to recognize it and promptly cancels the installation.
Is the Sharepoint Phone SDK not supposed to run on VS2013?
The requirements for the SP2013 Phone templates (SDK) are VS2012 and Phone SDK version 8.0.

I'm going to learn to develop WP app. I installed Visual Studio 2013. VS 2013 have an option to install WP 8.0 SDK. And I knew the site (http://dev.windowsphone.com/en-us/downloadsdk) has a link to download WP 8.0 SDk. Help me about difference between them. Do I need to install them all for my purpose?
With Visual Studio 2013, there is no difference between these two methods of installing the WP8 SDK. It was added as an optional component when installing Visual Studio 2013 for convenience.
Be aware, it's not possible to develop for Windows Phone 7 (or open existing projects) with Visual Studio 2013 + WP8 SDK.
