Under c:\program files (x86) , I see that I have two folders for IIS (but only one in control panel)
One folder is named IIS and the other is named IIS Express.
In control panel, IIS Express is ghosted but there. I go to turn windows features on or off and then try to put check in box for Internent Information Services as shown below in screen shots but I end up with the last screen shot "Windows couldn't complete the requested changes."
Things that may matter on solution: I had installed newest versions of Visual studio 2019 and SQL Server free edition (2017) and I also had several other SQL Server versions. But I decided I needed to go back to VS 2008 and SQL Server 2005. So I unistalled all the higher versions/upgrades. Now I only have the lower versions. When I tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express (which is the edition my database looks for) it states it could not install because IIS is not installed.
Now that is what I am trying to do. I have searched using command prompt and regedit and IIS is not installed on machine anywhere. (I tried all 5 steps from this article: <https://www.itechtics.com/check-iis-version/#How_to_determine_If_IIS_is_installed_on_your_computer> and it appears it is definitely NOT installed on my computer.
I don't know what else to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
