How can I avoid an access denied exception when trying to access User Information?

Question

I have Metro style application in XAML/C# that shows the log on user information. I used method "GetDisplayNameAsync（），GetPrincipalNameAsync（），GetDomainNameAsync（）"，but it can only show my display name, and throws exception "access is denied" when show principal and domain name.

How can I call GetPrincipalNameAsync and GetDomainNameAsync without getting an access denied exception?

You need to declare the "Enterprise authentication" capability. See App capability declarations for a little more info.
