    You won’t be able to develop Windows Store Applications in Windows 7.

    Getting started with Windows Store apps

    Windows Phone 8

    Windows Phone SDK 8.0

    System requirements

    Supported operating systems: Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro

    •◦Windows 8 64-bit (x64) client versions

    •Hardware: ◦4 GB of free hard disk space
    ◦4 GB RAM
    ◦64-bit (x64) CPU

    •Windows Phone 8 Emulator: ◦Windows 8 Pro edition or greater
    ◦Requires a processor that supports Second Level Address Translation (SLAT)
    If your computer meets the hardware and operating system requirements, but does meet the requirements for the Windows Phone 8 Emulator, the Windows Phone SDK 8.0 will install and run. However, the Windows Phone 8 Emulator will not function and you will not be able to deploy or test apps on the Windows Phone 8 Emulator.
