    As the title says, what's the right forum? I do know that there is

    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?forum=wptkv5

    but "v5" is confusing. I wonder why there's almost no traffic, so I  thought maybe there is a newer forum that I'm not aware of for these questions.

    EDIT: And there is the "v4" forum which seems to be active, too, but why do they both exist in parallel?

    Given they're both active you can post to either but may be better to use the more active one. I can't answer why there are two. The forums moderators or owner may know that.

     edit: It looks like one is under TechNet branding and the other (V5) is under MSDN branding. (both are visible in MSDN where only one is visible in TechNet brand) So developer related queries should be asked on MSDN whereas IT or management type questions could be asked on TechNet.

    From what I can tell it looks like the v5 forum is your best bet, even though it appears pretty deserted. The v4 forum is likely still there to support people on older ADK/WAIK installations.

    I can't find any ADK-specific forums, and it appears that WPT has kept the 5.x numbering with each ADK release (according to this, at least).

    Perhaps someone else will have a better idea, but that's likely where I'd start at least.

    Good luck, hope you get the answers you're after.

    I had several in the past and will probably have more in future. :)

    Thanks.

    I've just asked another one at stackoverflow  where I've just registered.
