Proper web.config for removing .html in url on godaddy site

I am using a web.config file to remove the .html from the url on my godaddy site I set up for a non-profit org. I am rather new to this and was given this code from a friend to help and got nothing but errors and crashed pages.

I uploaded the file to the public/html folder, renamed the files for each page to just the name (index, services, etc..) and nothing would load.

I previously tried an .htaccess file but was told it would not work with Godaddy sites for some reason, I still have the file for that also if anyone knows if that way would be better.

<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="RewriteHTML">
                    <match url=”(.*)” />
                    <conditions logicalGrouping=”MatchAll”>
                        <add input=”{REQUEST_FILENAME}”   matchType=”IsFile” negate=”true” />
                        <add input=”{REQUEST_FILENAME}”   matchType=”IsDirectory” negate=”true” />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type=”Rewrite” url=”{R:1}.html” />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

This was saved as web.config and placed within the public/html folder and my pages were renamed without the .html but it did not work.
