Where can I find IIS in Windows 7?

Question

I’ve got IIS installed and enabled on Windows 7, but I don’t know where to open it so that I can configure a website.

I seem to remember that in Windows XP it was somewhere in the Control Panel, but I can’t find it in Windows 7.

Before that you have to enable the IIS for windows by

start
Control panel
programs
Turn windows feature on / off
Check the IIS services (4th and 5th checkbox)
ok
restart the system

Question is answered I know, but you can always use Windows Key + R, type inetmgr then press either ENTER or CTRLSHIFT + ENTER.

(I'm a keyboard fan)

Only you need to do is go to your control panel.

Control panel

There in Program->Programs and Features->Programs and Features->Turn Windows Features on and off. Click on Windows Features on and off. Click Checkbox Internet Information Services and Click Ok Button.

Then go to Control Panel->System and Security->Administrative Tools. There you will find IIS.

Ah — it’s still in the control panel, I just couldn’t find where.

Start
Control Panel
System and Security
Administrative tools

(And if you’re viewing by large or small icons instead of by category, you go straight to Administrative Tools.)

Try to start the IIS using services:

C:\Windows\system32
Services
Open it
Start the IIS services
