Cannot start the web project because administrative privilege’s are required..

While troubleshooting ASP.NET web form project, I hit by this error;

The solution is to Unload  and edit project properties. Delete these lines;

<DevelopmentServerPort>4192</DevelopmentServerPort>
<IISUrl>http://localhost/CPSWEB</IISUrl>

from this XML segment;

  <ProjectExtensions>
    <VisualStudio>
      <FlavorProperties GUID="{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21}">
        <WebProjectProperties>
	…..
	----
        </WebProjectProperties>
      </FlavorProperties>
    </VisualStudio>
  </ProjectExtensions>

Reload project and it should work fine.
