      That's because the Guest account is not a member of the local machine's "Debugger Users" group, and it's probably not a member of "VS Developers" either. I SERIOUSLY recommend you do not use the guest account for developement. Create and user a normal user account with the level of access your applicaiton is going to need. Guest is usually disabled on every machine built, for a reason.

        Thank Sir, There is no "Debugger Users" on my machine. If I develop under Admin account, I get error about System.UnauthorizedAccess under Guest account. Do you know how to solve this problem? Thank again.

          WHy are you using the Guest account at all?? Since the Guest account is an anonymous user, there is no way to tell who is doing bad things with that account, so it's normally disabled by everyone. If you don't have either of the groups I mentioned, you might want to reinstall (repair) Visual Studio. Without those groups, the accounts are not going to have the appropriate permissions to do what you need them for.

            A guest is a visitor on the premises for a short time. A development effort is a time-involved process. Doesn't these itself contradict each others goals?
