Re: Visual Studio - Debug - Launch Application

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hey Robert, everything I have been reading points to exactly what you are
suggesting. I am on an XP Pro SP2 machine, and a Ping of the Local address,
results in success. A route print shows the 127.0.0.1 available, I think
that in XP this is already a default option...as I have seen below.

I also tried to install a loopback network card, and after selecting the
Microsoft Loopback the connection is created with only the Virtual Machine
Network Services option checked. This option is also present in the standard
LAN connection...and while not connected to the network at work I would
expect the loopback to still work.

As I mentioned I have been reading a bit on the whole loopback setting, and
I have been seeing that in VS 2005, there are settings for the network
connection for this, as it relates to the device defined in the
(Tools-->Options-->Device Tools-->Devices) then I pick the Emulator, and
Configuration, and in 2005 there are network settings, but in Visual Studio
2003 there are no Network Settings, so I figure they must be hidden else
where...?

Any more ideas?
