Hello all,

I hope you can help me..
I got one assignment: to modify the existing website made of .asp pages. So, I got the working folder, with all the subfolders and files that make one website....
now, in order to start working on it, I need to get it running locally on my PC... how do I do that? I went to windows features and checked the ASP option... still I cannot run the pages... can anyone help me?

I put that folder inside of wwwroot folder and I run http://localhost/demo/default.asp
and I get:
