What is the default location of inetmgr.exe of IIS in Windows 7, as none of my Windows searches are working; Any Alternative to access it?

Hi I want to acces, open "inetmgr.exe" on my Windows 7 machine. But none of the searches are working. ( Start Menu --> Search Program and Files NOR Search in My Computer). I somehow want to access inetmgr.exe of IIS(InternetInformation Services).

So can anyone kindly let me know the default location of inetmgr.exe or any DOS command to access it. I even tried typing "inetmgr.exe" in command prompt. But not working. So PLz somehow I need to access inetmgr.exe.

Thanks in advance.

Turn Windows features on or off

and then checked

I had the same problem on Windows Server 2016 with it not wanting to search. IIS Manager (with our normal websites) was showing in the Start menu but IIS 6 Manager was not (where the SMTP Virtual Server settings are located).

Luckily you can launch it from within Server Manager:

At first check IIS is installed or not.

For XP

  • Open Control Panel
  • Add-Remove Windows Components.

For Windows 7 / Windows Server 2012

  • Open Control Panel
  • Programs and Features
  • Turn Windows features on or off.

It should be available in following location: C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\InetMgr.exe

But when you goto start menu and type inetmgr.exe it should be visible in the list. If not then something wrong with your installation or that file has been deleted.

I had the same issue. Go into Control Panel -> Programs-> Turn Windows features on or off.

Click on features for Internet Information Services. Specifically, Web Management Tools and Wold Wide Web Services.

For Web Management Tools ->IIS 6 Management Compatibility ->IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility. (or any other features you think you may need)
