Microsoft Office 2010 Basic Authentication when Opening Files on Windows 2008 - sharepoint

I'm setting up a demo machine with Office and I want to be able to open an Office file using Sharepoint protocol. It seems like in Office 2010 that only SSL connections are allowed.
For this machine, I don't want to have to set up SSL.
This Microsoft article describes a workaround and how to configure it to use Basic Authentication, but it doesn't apply to Windows 2008. The Mr Fixit app fails because it doesn't work on Windows 2008 and the manual fixit doesn't apply.
This registry key doesn't exist in Windows 2008:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient
How can I enable Basic Authentication for Office 2010 on Windows 2008?
Create the above registry key? The description in the fixit makes it sound like it should already exist on those other Windows operating systems.

Considering that the WebClient key is missing it sounds like the WebDAV client is not installed.
A quick Google search yielded this:
On my Windows server 2008 system web client service is missing. Why so?
In Server 2008 edition, default setup does not have web client service. You need to install Desktop experience package to add web client service.

AD FS and Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 IFD Setup

I am trying to setup a Dynamics CRM 2016 Internet Facing Deployment. The application/SQL server is a Windows Server 2012 machine and CRM is hosted as a separate website(not the default website). Where do I install AD FS? Is it supposed to be on the Active Directory server or on the application server? Are there any other factors to be considered?
yes you can deploy your ADFS on the application server. If you look at page 10 of this deployment guide - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41701 you can see that same server deployments are supported. Although, it's a bit messy and separate server deployment is recommended.
One thing to keep in mind is that whenever you need to restart your application server (installing rollups\updates) your ADFS will go down as well, and if there are other applications using it, your users will loose access to them.
It could be any server but I would suggest to use separated server for that purpose.

Can I develop SharePoint 2013 add-in from different machine in domain?

I have SharePoint Foundation 2013 installed on a server. I want to do the development using My machine. I have Visual Studio 2015 installed, with Office tools. I can create an app and deploy it to office 365. But when i try to deploy to an on-premise server I get the following error;
Error occurred in deployment step 'Install SharePoint Add-in': The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'.
Please refer this the below link. As per my understanding Office 365 uses https and local used http. sslshopper.com/iis7-redirect-http-to-https.html. Also have you created a dns entry in your local server (host file) please check.

How to select Windows Server 2012 for Web Sites Preview on Azure

How do I select Windows Server 2012 for a Web Sites Preview on Azure? Or is Server 2012 not available yet for Web Sites Preview?
You don't get to select Windows Server 2012 (or for that matter any OS type) for a Windows Azure Website. You only choose them when you deploy your application as a Cloud Service (PaaS) or when creating a Windows Azure Virtual Machine (IaaS).
I don't believe you can select an operating system version with Windows Azure Web Sites. If your application has OS specific needs, you should probably consider Cloud Services.

Sharepoint 2010 Foundation licenses

Quick question about SP 2010 licensing.
Is it totally free?
Can I install onto a web facing server without any licenses and let anybody and everybody do stuff, are there limitations??
Thx :)
To run SharePoint 2010 Foundation as an Internet Facing deployment, you will need a full SQL Server license (license per CPU) if you do not use SQL Server Express, and you will need an Internet Connection License (or Windows Server External Connector depending on what they are calling it these days - its a license which basically forgoes the need for CALs for the server and IIS) for the server you are serving from, plus standard Windows Server licenses etc.
SharePoint 2010 Foundation itself does not need a license for Internet Facing deployment, but the services it relies on does.
Try hosted sharepoint solutions or BPOS (which is in WSS3.0 mode right now..) for a cheaper solution and if the requirements allow it
The information posted above is not accurate. We have corporate licensing for Microsoft products and also run Sharepoint Foundation (although, not for long). This is directly from a MS rep in Houston, TX (Guillermo Proano). I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him here:
SharePoint Foundation 2010 for Intranet Scenarios: you need to license Windows Server and have a Windows Server CAL for each internal user leveraging this solution.
SharePoint Foundation 2010 for Internet Scenarios: you need to license Windows Server (hosting external site) and need to purchase a Windows Server External Connector for each Windows Server in the farm running the SPS internet sites.
This is above and beyond the SQL licensing.
