How do you add Media Services to the IIS 10 Manager


I would like to add Media Services to my IIS 10.0 Website. (The site is hosted on a dedicated physical server running Windows Server 2016 Enterprise edition.)

Here is an image that shows "Media Services" options on the IIS Control panel. I cannot figure out how to add these features to my IIS Control panel.

Solution

  • As LexLi said, Media Services component don't support on IIS 10. You can use Azure Media Services. It is more convenient and easy to use than media services on IIS.

    If you insist on installing Media Services on IIS 10. You can try this:

    1. Open Regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\InetStp
    2. Edit "MajorVersion" and set the "DECIMAL" value to 9
    3. Hit F5 while in Regedit
    4. Now go install the Media services.
    5. Change the "MajorVersion" back to "DECIMAL" value of 10
    6. Hit F5 while in Regedit
    7. Close Regedit
