I create a windows 8 application, with live tiles and when I run in windows8 working fine, but when I run in simulator I get this exception:
TileUpdateManager.CreateTileUpdaterForApplication().Clear();
An exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in myapp.exe but was not handled in user code
Additional information: The notification platform doesn't have appropriate privilege on resources. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x803E0117)
Why?
The word that jumps out is 'privilages' Have you tried running VS in Elevated Mode? Also, put a try catch statement around that line code.
Microsoft answer:
this is a known issue in with the notification platform (which updates tiles) and a bug has already been filed. I'm going to mark this as answered and move to the the tools forum.
