    Make sure that you use the proper Authentication mode in the Remote Machine section. It should be Universal (Unencrypted Protocol).
    Also the IP you have seems like the fallback IP that a device gets when it cannot get a proper IP from the DHCP server. Are you sure that is correct? Can you access the device portal if you browse to that IP?

    Also, make sure to go to your Visual Studio project's settings, and under the Debug tab, check the "Uninstall and then re-install..." option. This solved it for me, both on the emulator and the actual device.

    Hi AlexD,
    I have a doubt regarding your suggested setting.
    If we want to run the program on hololens emulator then authentication Mode options gets disabled in VS.
    So i dont think changing that will change anything.

    Hi DanBourque,
    Why have you selected target device as Remote Machine. It should be Holelens Emulator because we want to see the hologram on Emulator itself.
