windows-8.1

I have a program which adjusts SeDebugPrivilege and then starts to iterate through system processes and calls OpenProcess for them (and does other stuff, but it's not important now). Also the program runs in administrator mode of course. On Windows XP and Windows 7 it works fine , but on Windows 8.1 OpenProcess fails for the following system processes with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED(5): smss.exe, csrss.exe, services.exe . As I know with SeDebugPrivilege I should be able to open these processes and retrieve a handle for them. Does anybody have a clue, what kind of magic causes this error only on

So, I installed Visual Studio 2013 on my Windows 8.1 box. I want to experiment with it and created a new Windows Store Grid App . I want to persist data on a SQLite database, apparently the database of choice for WinRT apps. Quickly found links to the vsix needed in order to be able to use the SDK: SQLite download page , and downloaded sqlite-winrt81-3080002.vsix. Installed it, then in my project, added the reference to the newly installed SDK (right click references, add reference, navigate to Windows, select extensions and tick SQLite for Windows Runtime (Windows 8.1) checkbox. Also quickly

Need to support some old projects directly in the newest OS, not in a virtual machine. I've installed VB6 from the VS6 disk #1 successfully, but I cannot install the SP6 for this development environment. When I launch it, an information window that informs me about the installation progress appears for some milliseconds, but the required files (ADVPACK.DLL, msvbvm60.dll, ...) aren't updated in the system folder. The About dialog in VB6 IDE also proves that - I do not see "SP6" anywhere in it. How to install the SERVICE PACK 6 (not the VB IDE itself) in this OS? Solved my "problem" - very

After trying to install .net 3.5 via the program and features (see below). I was getting unable to install error 800F0906 I am using windows 8.1.

I am trying to install MPI for Windows 8, so when I searched net I got steps for installing it on XP/7 but not for windows 8. The link is: http://swash.sourceforge.net/online_doc/swashimp/node9.html But firstly when I have to allow mpi.exe and smpd.exe to communicate through firewall these exe files are not listed. Secondly, when I run cmd(as administrator) and type : "smpd -install", it says : "Unknown option: -install". I guess the command for windows 8 is something else. So I will be really grateful if anyone helps with it because I'm not able to proceed further. Side note before I start,

I have my ViewModels inside a PCL, because I'm developing a Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone app in parallel. I have a list of things inside my ViewModel as an ObservableCollection. I have a GridView inside a Page inside a Windows 8.1 project. I wish to incrementally load items from my list of things in my ViewModel. Normally I would implement ISupportIncrementalLoading inside a custom subclass of ObservableCollection, however, given that my ViewModel is inside a PCL, ISupportIncrementalLoading is not available (it's not supported by WP8). So my question is, does anyone have any suggestions as to
