I'm having this exception while loading xaml designers:
System.Security.SecurityException
Designer could not be started because of a permissions issue on the drive to which it is installed. Please check the permissions of the folder before trying to start the designer.
I did google the problem and tried some methods but it doesn't work. I'm using Visual Studio Ultimate with Blend. Help!

@Rayky: Hmm... never heard that one before. Have you tried running Visual Studio as Administrator on your machine? From the Win 8 Start screen, right-click on the Visual Studio icon, in the app bar, select Start As Admin. Try again ... do you still get that message?
