Microsoft is making my life hell at the moment. Every official looking link that I found to get the remote debugging monitor for my Surface RT pointed me to a page with a Visual Studio 3013 toolset. WTF? There is no link to download a VS 2012 remote debug monitor?

Yes, here it is:

I don’t have time or energy to download the VS 2013 preview for a project that should never be developed on a preview version of the development tools. I need release quality tools.

So there it is. Getting this correct version of the remote debug monitor allowed me to connect VS 2012 Update 3 on my Windows 8 PC to my Surface RT.
