问题:

Visual Studio 2013 Diagnostics session failed to start:

Cannot load collector agent. Access is denied.

I would like to know what access rights are required to run Performance and Diagnostic tool

回答1:

I had the same issue, for me it was due to not being a Local Administrator on my Developer Machine.

If I ran Visual Studio under an Elevated Account that was a Local Admin, (shift + right click > run as...) then the diagnostic session would start.
