I've recently installed Visual Studio on my computer for school and after completing my first tutorial I receive this error-
There were build errors. Would you like to continue and run the last successful build? Yes No
Error 1 Unable to write to output file 'AppPath\WindowsApplication1.exe': Access is denied. WindowsApplication1
Well the problem is that I only ran an empty form as per the tutorial. This is what I get from output

In addition whenever I click on any help it tells me that I do not have document explorer installed, but it is.
So I restarted my computer in safemode and ran visual studio 2008 and it ran like a charm everything worked beautifully. So now I guess my question is what could be causing this problem in normal windows and how can I fix it?
Running on Vista home premium if that makes a difference at all.
