Visual Studio 2015. Failed to register URL for site access is denied IIS Express. Access denied 0x80070005
<p>I enabled SSL in Visual Studio 2015 in order to implement <em>Facebook</em> and <em>Google</em> login locally. </p>

<p>I changed the <em>project URL</em> in the <em>Web tab</em> of the project's properties to <em><a href="https://localhost:44300/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://localhost:44300/</a></em> and decorated the controller with the <strong><em>RequireHttps</em></strong> attribute - <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.mvc.requirehttpsattribute(v=vs.100).aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ref @msdn</a>. </p>

<p>Everything worked fine locally.</p>

<p>I reverted settings to HTTP to test something else and that caused me a problem when I tried to get back to HTTPS.</p>

<p>I found <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23502327/unable-to-launch-the-iis-express-web-server-failed-to-register-url-access-is-d">this SO</a> question and tried almost every suggested solution.</p>

<p><strong>Error detail:</strong></p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Failed to register URL "<em>url</em>" for site "<em>site</em>" application "<em>path</em>".
  Error description: Access is denied. (0x80070005).</p>
