We have decided to phase out the Mixed Reality Forums over the next few months in favor of other ways to connect with us.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
The plan between now and the beginning of May is to clean up old, unanswered questions that are no longer relevant. The forums will remain open and usable.
On May 1st we will be locking the forums to new posts and replies. They will remain available for another three months for the purposes of searching them, and then they will be closed altogether on August 1st.
So, where does that leave our awesome community to ask questions? Well, there are a few places we want to engage with you. For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality. If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers. And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.
Why can't my Hololens open .exe files made with Unity?

I tried to do the debug on VS2017 on a Remote Computer but It says
"DEP6701: bootstrapping failed with unexpected error: ArgumentException - The ID value is not specified.
Parameter Name: id [0x80070057]"
I think it's because i can't pair the Holo and the PC with WiFi (The PC has only Ethernet) so I started to build my projects from Unity and move .exe files into the Hololens with the USB but they can't be read, can you help me?

Hi Gab,
HoloLens application it's in UWP format : .appx and not in .exe .
You can check the connection between your Computer and your HoloLens with the device portal : https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/windows/uwp/debug-test-perf/device-portal-hololensAs far as i know there is several ways to deploy on HoloLens, try this one :
You can build your app on Unity in UWP (be sure to put your scripting backend configuration on .NET, this is in the player settings). Then you deploy your application on your HoloLens (connect by USB) by Visual Studio in "Release" "x86" mode and choose "Device" for the target.
Tell me if it works, if not i m gonna tell you others ways to deploy,
