Start VS2012 .sln and .proj files always as Administrator on Windows 8
VS2012 non admin problem description
I'm using windows 8 and visual studio 2012, and i had some strange problems related to permission.
If visual studio runs under non-administrator rights, it cannot do some compile tasks like "Register for COM interop"
Step by step solution
Start a VisualStudio command prompt
Start a VisualStudio command prompt and navigate it to the place where devenv.exe is located. On my System this is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE
Create a manifes file from devenv.exe
Execute the following command:
mt -inputresource:"devenv.exe" -out:devenv.exe.manifest
This will create the file devenv.exe.manifest
Edit the content of devenv.exe.manifest
Change the level value of requestedExecutionLevel from asInvoker to requireAdministrator
Write the manifest back into the devenv.exe
Execute the following command in the visual studio command prompt:
mt -outputresource:devenv.exe -manifest devenv.exe.manifest
Check whether visual studio 2012 starts as administrator
Just double click any .sln or .proj file, and check whether visual studio starts as administrator or not.

The important piece of the best voted answer is a few sections in length, and spreads the means for Windows 7, 8, and 10. The means are distinctive for 7 than for 8 and 10. For this situation, the best, IMO, would have been to check this inquiry as a close copy of that answer. Indeed, you can without much of a stretch invert run as admin settings, yet the fact is that it's anything but difficult to overlook that you're running as admin. Simply underlining the need for informed choice.
