Where to find the dashboard in Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 8?

1.Install VS 2012 Ultimate on Windows 8, then launch VS 2012, but cannot find the device panel from the VS2012 view menu. Only 3 debugging options for the Windows Store app:

Simulator Local Machine Remote Machine 

The device bar mentioned here .

2. If you are debugging a Windows storage application using Simulator, start the application, and then try to stop the debugging application using Alt + F4, the application running in the simulator will not be closed if you switch to VS 2021 using Alt + Tab to stop VS 2012 debugger will be frozen and crash.

I don’t know where it is wrong. How to fix it? Where to find the device’s panel, is it the same as the simulator?

The device panel is not the same as the Simulator, it is a quick tool to change the design surface to match screen resolutions, device status, etc., as well as more.

In Visual Studio Community 2017 ...

To see the "Device" panel (device window), I'm sure you need 3 things:

  1. Install the Universal Windows Platform Development module
  2. Open the UWP project
  3. Windows 10 maximum target less than 10.0.16299.0

This is how I interpret what this page says:
