I have a minimalistic main page - 4 buttons and a Bing Map. When I run the app, though, I see two rogue "counters" (don't know how else to describe them) in the upper left and upper right. Here's the one on the upper left: What's causing them, and how can I get rid of them? BTW, the black vertical strip on the left is "as designed" (no pun intended) - below the "counter" are my four buttons, stacked vertically (I deliberately gave the Bing Map only 80% of the page, not the 100% it greedily grabbed from the git-go). UPDATE For Ashok: Here's all there is to the XAML: <Page x:Class="Platypus

Recently I was developing a Universal app for both the Windows Phone and Windows Store. In that app, I was trying to fix the Orientation of the App to Landscape. But in WinRT based apps of Windows Phone 8.1, I failed to find any Orientation option. In the Silverlight apps, we can fix the Orientations as we want. But is there any way to fix the Orientation to Landscape mode in the Universal Apps? It will be very helpful if someone help me in this regard. Thanks in advance. :) Under WinRT you can have a look at DisplayInformation class , where you will find probably all you need. You can also

I have been using Windows 8.1 for creating Windows Store apps. Below is output of winver command. I have installed necessary updates to start developing universal Windows Store app using JavaScript. When I try to launch app on Windows Phone emulator, I am getting following error. Unable to start windows phone emulator It also suggesting to use Windows 8 pro version. Is there anyway of running this without requiring to throw more money on getting Windows 8 Pro version? Romasz Windows Phone Emulator requires Hyper-V which needs Windows Pro version. That's probably why you aren't able to start

I've got a proof of concept W8.1-app that allows to authenticate a user with an Azure Active Directory using the ADAL library. I've got the part of allowing the user to log in and accessing my resources working. However, it should be able to allow the user to log out, and allow another user to log in on the same device. I've found other questions, on SO and elsewhere, regarding a similar question, but on IOS or in a WPF-app. There, they suggested calling the <AuthenticationContext>.TokenCache.Clear() and clearing the cookies by the using the following call: private void ClearCookies() { const

I just want to remove library.zip after zipfile.open() but os.remove() throws "WindowsError [Error 32]" and it seems zipfile doesn't release the zip file out of with block. WindowsError 32 means "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." So, how can I remove this library.zip file? code: import os import zipfile as z dirs = os.listdir('build/') bSystemStr = dirs[0] print("[-] Merging library.zip...") with z.ZipFile('build/' + bSystemStr + '/library.zip', 'a') as z1: with z.ZipFile('build
