    Hello,
    i am playing around with the amazing Vuforia Toolkit and i've asked myself if it is possible to publish a standalone windows application with Vuforia? Because for now, the build just crashes, although everything works great in the Unity editor! I know its just for preview purposes, but why cant this work in a standalone build?
    Is there a way to get this to work or do i have to switch to another AR tool?

    The SDK doesn't support desktop apps, which is why you can't build an EXE. Only Android and iOS are supported. We provide a simulator for the Unity Editor, but that plugin can only run in Unity.

    Cheers :)

    I found it:

    The demo looks good , it is probably worth the development time saved to get it to work on windows.
