I am created build and deploying those using TFS 2015. Everything was proper but from last two weeks the Build is being created successfully but the Release part is throwing error

TF50309: The following account does not have sufficient permissions to complete the operation:[*****]\Project Collection Service Accounts. The following permission is needed to perform this operation:View Project-level Information

So I verified the team project-> security settings. View Project-level Information is set to Allowed for all the groups except Project valid user. All the other groups are member of Project valid user so I do not think it should be a issue.

Can somebody help me out and give a proper solution
