What are the additional Administrator rights?

You need to give your user account access to the key container located at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys

In case you reset your key container to a new one, and forget where it is.. you can reset the key container for the strong name utility using sn.exe -c. So, if the account access fix doesn't work, you may be using an alternate key store so a reset may be in order.

I would try sn.exe -c before if changing the permission on the folder does not work.

Source: sn.exe fails with Access Denied error message
