Configuring ASP.NET
If this is the first time you'll be running ASP.NET on your computer, you need to enable some features before running the demos:

- Enable Application Development Features in Internet Information Services > World Wide Web Services
- Depending on your platform configuration, also do the following:
- For Windows 7, register ASP.NET with IIS:
- 32-bit:
%WINDIR%\MICROSOFT.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -i
- 64-bit:
%WINDIR%\MICROSOFT.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -i
- For Windows 8/8.1, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 make sure that all items under .NET Framework 4.6 Advanced Services are checked as shown in the image below.
- When running web applications in x64-bit mode in Visual Studio 2013 or later (like the HTML5Viewer), in the project Options > Web > Bitness field, change the value to x64.
- If this field is set to the default value, then the value of "Options/Project and Solutions/Web projects/Use the 64 bit version of IIS Express for web sites and projects" of Visual Studio settings will be used:
