Answer 1

Execute your application with admins rights :

• Projet's properties
• Show Windows parameters (this open app.manifest)

Change <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false" />

to <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />

Answer 2

I got it by opening visual studio as Administrator.
