Why should we run visual studio in administrator mode...?

I am new to Visual Studio. When I tried to build my Wpf program it threw me an error

Error signing assembly -- Access is denied 

But when I run Visual Studio as administrator it is running normally..

Can any one give me the reason.. TIA

I suppose that you need write permission on the folder. See this:

Signing assembly Access Is Denied

Many actions require extra priviledges. Running VS as administrator provides those priviledges otherwise VS would run as a process with limited access.
