Good Evening all;
I'm at my wits end and really could use some assistance. I downloaded Visual Studio 2015 on Windows 10 machine and I can't open up a web project. I receive the following error message: Configure IIS Express failed with the following error: Initializing the applicationhost.config file failed. Cannot find IIS express. I have been searching the internet for solutions and have not found any that have resolved this issue...hence my ROA here.
I did have to turn on IIS in Windows features (they were all off), but to no avail.
I originally started with VS 2013 (downloaded from dreamspark (i'm a lowly non-trad college student) on a brand spanking new machine with Windows 8.1, but couldn't even get the thing to run; While running windows updates, i must have inadvertantly selected that i wanted to download W10. I'm actually able to get into VS15 now; i can open .aspx and .aspx.cs files individually with no problem, but not the web site.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
