Hi everybody,
I have VS 2013 and I have recently updated my Windows 7 to Windows 10. Today I try to make new web site in VS doing the following:

file/new/website...

Then when I choose whotever from the menu VS shows me pop-up message with following content:

"configuring iis express failed with the following error:

unable to access the iis metabase".

1)I've already opened:

...System32\inetsrv\config

and then:

...System32\inetsrv\config\Export.

2) I also try to fix the problem by windows troubleshooter.

3) Then I went into Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off... inside that, I selected Internet Information Services -> Web Management Tools -> IIS 6 Management Compatibility -> IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility.

4) I also set VS to be always opened as administrator.

Although all these changes the problem still exists and I still receive the same error message.

If anybody can help me I'll be gratefull.

Thanks in advance!
