Thanks for help

First step: You need to turn on the 'role and features" in Windows control panel in order to add the IIS role/feature to windows 10. How to do it you can find here:
https://windowsjet.com/how-to-enable-iisinternet-information-services-in-windows-10-403/
Second step: Follow the instructions in the Lucee documentation with this video guide:
https://docs.lucee.org/guides/installing-lucee/windows/installing-lucee-on-windows-2019-with-installer-quick-video-guide.html
The above guide is about Windows Server 2019, but I've done it that way on Windows 10 also and it worked.

How to use IIS Express 10?

I have installed IIS 10 On my Windows 10 PC but after installation I cannot find the application either in start menu or if I make a search for it.
I have tried to go to C:\Program files\IIS Express\ but can't understand anything there
I want to see the files of a website.
First you have to understand the difference between iis and iis express. IIS express would only be used by people who don't have access to IIS or want something that is lighter than IIS but more like IIS than Cassini. IIS 7 ships with the operating system and is tightly integrated to Windows. more information you can refer to this link:
IIS Express Overview
IIS Web Server Overview
https://stackoverflow.com/a/8396060/13336642
If you are installing IIS 10(not iis express), then you can find it in the start menu. If you can’t find it, you may have a problem with the installation. you can refer to the following article on how to install iis. If it is iis express, then you can use it in visual studio.

Setting up Coldfusion 10 with IIS - Unable to configure IIS connector

I'm trying to setup Coldfusion to work with IIS on my Windows 8 laptop. I have installed the ISAP filter and extensions along with the CGI extension but when I run the wsconfig and add the web server it then throws the error "Unable to configure IIS Connector". What can I try next? I've made sure they're all enabled in the IIS manager also.
The coldfusion 8 webserver configuration tool states that it is compatible until IIS 7. This is probably why it fails to add the handler mappings for IIS 8.
I found that by uninstalling coldfusion and re installing worked, that way in the setup it was able to identify what web servers were currently running and give me the option to configure coldfusion with IIS. Hope this helps someone else too

Webmatrix - URL rewrite module

Does anyone have any experience with creating URL rewrites in Webmatrix? Because it uses IIS Express instead of IIS 7, there's nowhere for me to create these rules.
I am deploying to IIS 7 on my production server, so if I need to do any rewrites, I need to make them directly in production to test.
Is there any way I can switch to using IIS instead of IIS Express on my local machine?
I have tried a few things to get local IIS working, but to no avail.
You can install IIS on a Windows 7 or Windows 8 machine by going to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off. Make sure to install enough of the components to get a WebMatrix site working - ASP.NET & the management console for certain.
You can then create a virtual server for the directory your project is in and use the IIS management console to play around with URL rewriting. You may need to install the UrlRewrite module using the MS Web Platform Installer, available here:
http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx
If you need more help getting your local IIS working, give me some more information on how far you've got and I'll try and extend my answer.

Missing inetmgr.exe file

I'm a newbie here and have found some of the material really useful. However, I can't seem to resolve this issue: I'm running Windows 7 Professional and don't have an inetmgr.exe file in C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv. I have a number of iis... files but no inetmgr.exe file.
The bigger picture is that I'm trying to get Apache and PHP working on my laptop and am going round in circles trying to get Localhost to work. I keep getting "Webpage cannot be found" and searching the net has led me to believe the inetmgr.exe file might be key to resolving the problem. That and port 80 might be involved somewhere....
In case you haven't already picked this detail up, I am way, way, way out of my comfort zone with this but I really need to get this working for a course I'm taking.
Thank in advance for any light you may be able to shed.
Install IIS:
Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off -> Check "Internet Information Services". Select next and follow prompts to Install IIS.
For more info, see this Q&A to check for and install IIS, Check whether IIS is installed or not?
Since this question is the first Google search result for inetmgr not found, and since it can be quite puzzling to not be able to find inetmgr even if the web service seems to be working correctly, I thought I'd annotate it with the most obvious answer for those who actually need the IIS Manager: you have to install the Manager separately from WWW service (it is a separate option to installing IIS WWW service itself).
[Windows 8.x]
First, type IIS in the Start page: if you see Internet Information
(IIS) Manager, you are good to go. If not...
Go to Control Panel, "Programs and Features", then click "Turn
Windows features on or off" in the left pane.
In the "Windows Features" dialog that pops up, make sure that under
"Internet Information Services" you have "Web Management Features"
checked in addition to "World Wide Web Services". (Technically, you
just need "IIS Management Console" under "Web Management Features"
to be checked).
Don't forget to click OK in the "Windows Features" dialog. :-)
Now go to Step #1 and you should see Internet Information (IIS)
Manager as an available icon.
Inetmgr.exe is the executable for IIS. If you are trying to just have Apache and PHP work, you can use WAMP server - this will give you everything you need to start developing with PHP. The site is: http://www.wampserver.com/en/
IIS is a web server and Apache is a webserver too. If you want to use Apache, you donèt need to have IIS installed.
You need to install iis first.

In windows server 2008 R2 I found IIS Server under Roles, not features

ColdFusion10 Developer and Windows7 (IIS7.5)

I am trying to learn ColdFusion and have installed the developer edition (CF10) on my Win7 computer and this brings up the localhost administrator page correctly but I have a test helloworld.cfm file in inetpub/wwwroot and when I try & access this with localhost/helloworld.cfm windows opens a dialogue box saying what program should open this .cfm file?
(in IIS Mime type there is none for .cfm & when I tried to add one it didn't work...).
Several posts on the internet say ensure IIS has CGI enabled and ISAPI Extensions
IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility which I have.
I'm not sure what is wrong here-can anyone advise me clearly & simply if I can view and use .cfm in IIS & how?
We know IIS is the problem because your administrator works, so CF is running correctly.
What I do is the following
create a site in IIS, just basic. no setting changes
install coldfusion 10
During install coldfusion will ask me if it has to configure all current IIS sites
if you let it do that, it should all work like a charm.
Did you do it like this?
I would uninstall and re-install as something must have gone wrong connecting IIS to COldFusion
CF10 does not require the IIS 6 compatibility. If you don't need that for any other web technology connections, then remove that. You do need CGI, .Net Extensibility, ASP.NET, ISAPI Extensions and ISAPI Filters. I believe the connector configurator for ColdFusion especially uses the .Net Extensibilty to "wire things up".
