Right click on the shortcut that the app puts on your desktop and click to "Open file location."

Then just go backwards through the directory until you hit the connect folder. :)

For me, it's: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\APKTOW10M\connect

That said, this method of replacing the files hasn't really helped me.

Connection problems with Lumia 640 DS

Apk to Win10 gives me the error 9. With Windows Explorer I can access the storage of the phone and the SD-Card, but the Windows Phone Developer Registration says, that there is no phone connected. I already installed two Android apps three weeks ago and everything worked fine. Since then I made no changes to the phone, just reinstalled Windows 10 on my Laptop. Is there a solution to this problem

Crash on startup

Great thread.

I have tried your method though. I have pushed apps to my device through network with wconnect and adb. I have tried with Facebook and Snapchat patched with Google Play Services but both crash on startup.

I am running on Windows 10.0.10536.1000 on Nokia Lumia 930.

Do you know any solution?

What about data obb??
[Windows 10 Mobile] Darrian:
"adb push com.whatever\whateverdata.obb /sdcard/Android/obb/com.whatever/whateverdata.obb"

or

"adb push com.whatever\whateverdata.obb /sdcard/whateverdata.obb" and use a file manager (I recommend Cabinet because I know it works; many file managers crash on startup) and manually create the directory in Android/obb and copy/move the obb file from the storage root

or

Install Airdroid and create the appropriate folder in Android/obb and copy the data through your web browser. You can get the apk from 1mobile. If it's not the latest version just ignore the prompt that there is a newer version available; it will still work. This is probably the easiest way if you're not good with the command line.

Method 4 works in the new build 10536 ? : confuso:
[Windows 10 Mobile] siddhant97072:
ADVAPI32.dll

hello sir

i am getting this error

wconnect.exe-entry point not found

Method 2 (new, noob-proof)

1. Download the files here and extract them anywhere

2. Install "IpOverUsbInstaller" and "vcredist_x86"

2. Run "APKDeployment.exe"

3. On your phone go to "Settings/Update & Security/For developers" and enable "Developer mode" and "Device discovery" then press "Pair"

4. Connect your phone to USB, insert the code you got earlier from your phone, into APKDeployment app, then press pair. Your phone should appear as "emulator_555x on USB"

5. Now that you're paired, you can simply drag .apk's into the application then choose to deploy all.

Method 3 (even simpler)

1. Download the package from here and install it.

2. Follow app instructions.

Method 4

Install APKtoWin10m

Download Windows Bridge

On your pc go to "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\APKTOW10M\connect" then extract the "Windows bridge" contents there. When asked, replace all files.

That's it, the tool should be fixed.

Credits go to [MENTION=6887893]alb3530[/MENTION].

B. VERY IMPORTANT!

1. Do not disconnect the device while an apk is installing.

2. Do not reboot while your phone has Developer Mode Activated.

C. Errors you might encounter and how to fix them.

1. Status 9 - connection problem

If this happens, unregister you device using "Windows Phone Developper Registration 8.1", tool provided alongside Windows Phone 8.1 SDK, or download the lite version from here.Afterwards you will be able to access Developer settings again. Or Hard reset, your choice.

If the method above did not help, another fix is to go to device manager and uninstall these drivers [(coresponding to your device) also delete them if asked] then refresh, and let Windows reinstall them.

2. Status 14 - device not supported

Either your device is unsupported or you haven't installed "Developer Enhacements" update

To install Developer enhacements update, install Windows Insider from Store and Enroll, then check phone updates. It should show up there.

3. Developer menu crashes, wconnect app hangs

If this happens, unregister you device using "Windows Phone Developper Registration 8.1", tool provided alongside Windows Phone 8.1 SDK, or download the lite version from here.Afterwards you will be able to access Developer settings again. Or Hard reset, your choice.

4. Notification toggles flashing

Just reboot, but remember to disable Developer Mode first.

Nearly the same problem for me. I have a Lumia 930 CV NL. The 930 should be a supported model.

I had the "Can't boot Astoria platform" message. Then updated the wconnect and now it's "Can't boot Windows Bridge for Android Platform". But still an error 14.

Things I already tried:

Setting Region to US

Setting language to English (US)

Doing both previous together

Hard reset (not fun, but that's the risk of experimenting on a daily driver)

If anyone has any insight into making Astoria/Windows Bridge boot, I would be very happy

-edit-

I have been browsing around on my phone and "C:\data\users\DefApps\AppData\Local\Aow" contains 4 folders: "cache", "data", "mnt" and "RootFS", but all folders are empty.

The size of the Aow folder is also 0 bytes, where I hear other people about a 100 MB folder.

I found a Lumia 920 (CV UK) to experiment with. Sadly this one also could not boot Windows Bridge for Android Platform.

My hypothesis: Going from 8.1 straight to 10536 does not install the bridge correctly.

Currently I'm testing this out.

First step: Hard reset on the 920 after installing 10536. Start fresh with the phone, so not restoring any settings from other phones. Still no Windows Bridge for Android Platform.

Next step: Phone Recovery tool back to 8.1, don't do a restore of any phone. Then resubbing to Windows Insider and going back to 10536. The phone is now on Lumia Cyan and installing any updates it gets.

Just for info, anyone that has 10536 and doesn't get any more updates and gets an error 14, did you come straight from 8.1?
[Windows 10 Mobile] System322:
Yes, I tried with my Lumia 830, directly from an empty and clean wp 8.1, I installed 10536, but without any succes.

OK, just wanted to share my experience, first of all thanks to everyone who contributed in making this work, second of all, please allow me to explain what exactly happened on my side.

My device is nokia lumia 1520, so its supported, followed this thread and another one but error 14/9/13 were all over the place. its a long story (its my fourth try btw) but at the end of the day, you need to upgrade to 10166, to get that I had to sign in with the ((((((slow channel)))))) in windows insider after registering/unlocking my device using windows developer tool sdk 8.1 (or whatever its name was), and that was it.

My mistake was upgrading through the fast channel, my first apk was deployed(wont state the name as it will be a violation in regard to XDA's rules) using APKTOW10M using a/an usb connection. I am not in a hurry in trying each and every apk out there because my other device is a nexus but God how nice, reliable and durable battery life those nokias have. (english is my second language so .......)

good luck ladies and gentlemen

Very very helpful, I was wondering how to get a lower build number without doing crazy crazy stuff, but slow ring. d0h.

Currently it's installing 10536 via fast ring, and i'm going to sport, but if it doesn't work when I come back home, I'll certainly go back to 8.1, sub in to slow ring and try it out and of course report back.

Not much if you are running the latest fast ring build. On the last build it caused some weird glitches, you couldn't install any more apks, but it could be fixed by using the Windows Phone 8.1 development tools to unregister your phone as a developer device.

After the reset to 8.1 and straight install to 10536 on fast for the second time, still no go for Windows Bridge for Android Platform.

Yesterday I then reset my 920 to 8.1 again and tried subbing to the slow ring, but the phone refused to download anything. 1 hour later it suddenly started installing 8.1 update 2, so i guess MS was busy with other updates.

This morning I managed to get to 10166 on slow ring and :victory: Windows Bridge for Android Platform boots! :victory:

Now I'm resubbing to fast ring to get back to 10536 to prevent stuff like the blinking notifications bug when rebooting. If I run into problems I'll post back, but if there's no post, all is working fine.
