A workgroup installation computer does not support the operation.

[Yovav]

I'm trying to send a message (c# project)

I added to my Windows 7 -> Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) Server
(the core and triggers options - after installing all options didn't work as
well)

I'm doing it on a local laptop (not connected to the regular work network)

so my user name looks like this:
private const string queueName = @".\userName";

When I try to create the message like this:
queue = MessageQueue.Create(queueName, false);

It fails with this error:
A workgroup installation computer does not support the operation.

How can I make it work locally ?

You are using path names that require Active Directory (which is why you get
the error).
Use Direct Format names instead.
